Once there were Spagetti Westerns, now there are Spaghetti 1911s.
Glad you like.
The first time that I shot a 1911 was June, 1967. At that time, the Navy did not provide hearing protection and I did not like shooting it. I have a couple of them now and they are my favorite handguns.
😂 Right with you man ⚓
The Charles Daly Field Grade 1911 is far superior from similar products at there same price point. I just added that exact one to my 1911 collection for $459.
what would you say is superior?
does it run HP fine ?
I got a Charles daly 1911 for $400 before tax today. Looking forward to shooting it
@@joesmith-fi1sx I have this exact model, it runs lighter hollow points fine. I run Norma MHPs in mine.
My grandfather's Charles Daly is absolute dogshit, the barrel nearly blew up on me because of a squib round, and it jams far more than any other 1911 I've shot, do not buy.
I inherited a 1970s Charles Daly over under shotgun made in Japan. It is beautiful and shoots well, especially with Lead shells. Now I want this 1911. I fired thousands of rounds through a 1911 at the Special Forces Special Operations Tactics Course. We fought the change to the Beretta.
Thank you for always include a disassembly of the guns that you review. It tells me how good of the design of the gun is, and thus influences my purchasing decision.
I bought mine new in August 2021 for $450. I wish I would have purchased more of these because you are lucky if you can find one now. I only changed the grips and it is spot on at the range.
super late reply but as of writing this i just bought my first ever gun and it was the one shown in the video for about $449. im really glad to see so many people like this gun i did a little bit of research but it was mainly impulse buy. glad to see my instincts didnt lead me astray here
I purchased one recently at a farm store and it was a deal, $399. I had to do a few minor things to it like stretch the manual safety spring to have a better safety function. I tuned the flat main spring to give me a little better trigger and the magazine drops free now. I replaced the magazine catch with a Wilson Combat part and I bought two Wilson Combat magazines. I have put a hundred rounds through it with no malfunctions.
What ammo are you using?
@@dnwlogisticsllc8609 just regular hardball ammo.
Even the grips remind me of Springfield, I think that’s the look they went for. And it really is impressive for less than $400 brand new! Crazy cheap for even just a decent shooter.
This is the first 1911 that I would consider buying. I'm not into competition guns but this looks like a very good SD handgun
I’m here before Mr. Gunsandgear and now I feel accomplished
Thanks 🇺🇸
I commented for him 👍🏼
Shhhhh...don't say it so loud; he'll hear you. Then, we're ALL in trouble. You know how dad gets sometimes.
I have a CD Field Grade I bought 20+ years ago. Work good, I’m very satisfied with that gun. Thanks for feview.
God Bless John M. Browning! The 1911 will be one of his many legacies that will live on!
At 40 seconds that shot cadence with the music is perfect
Gotta love a classic 1911. For most uses for this pistol, this one will do just fine.
My father always taught me to rub gun oil all over the outside of the gun when I’m done cleaning it, wiping away the excess. Parkerized guns need a base layer of oil to keep them protected long term. It’s like seasoning a cast iron skillet.
When your finish sucks up a good bit of oil it will become extremely durable and rust resistant. Mine out of the box had a very subtle green tint to it (as I recall) and was very dull. I’ve had it for eight years now and it looks more like a dark slate color.
Silicon gel is a good alternative. Not as messy and same function. Your father did teach you right!
Agreed I have a Springfield Mil Spec which for a few hundred dollars more I got a better made American 1911 lowered & flared ejection port , match grade barrel and fitted bushing, flared mag well two!!! Mags and target sights white dot type. Not to mention a nice carry case & extra grips. Getting all this separate would be & $ 1,100 gun or more. The Garrison is my next 1911!!
It's Italian...... use olive oil. 🤣
@@enricomandragona163 You keep telling yourself that.
@@robertrosenberg6354 go eat a dry matzah
Would be a nice looking 1911 had it not been for the HUGE name on the slide.
Agreed. Major put-off. Totally unnecessary and stupid.
Man, the soundtrack to the shooting compilation at the beginning is going to make me buy one of these.
He shot on cue with the music
So cool these classic looking 1911's.
Iconic. American. Pistol.
I've been on the lookout for a basic 1911 as a retirement gift to myself. Been looking at the RIA Gov't model, but the Charles Daly is looking good, too.
Would like to see them make a HI POWER !!!
I would love a hi power. Good call!
I have a charles daily hi power,a well made pistol,with xs sights.
@@joelmclamore1139 didn't know they made one...sounds cool
I wish they would bring back the hipower as well I have an Fn but would love a 2nd
@@chadhaire1711 What’s not to like? Cocked and locked?
Sootch is like a movie action hero, he never has to reload 🤣
1911 still going strong even in this new generation of pistols
It's like a classic muscle car, everyone dreams of owning one growing up!
That's right
I got one for my dad for Father’s Day.
Sounds like a good pistol. I will be on the lookout for one. Thanks for the review. I also was recommending your channel to some folks recently and mentioned the channel to a USCCA representative in chat. I joined in 2019 and hope to be at the Expo in October. I appreciate how you do your reviews and presentations. Keep up the good work.
I just found one at my local gun shop. After watching this video, I had to snatch it up!!!!!
Great review and great 1911! Thank you from Italy!

Good review of another quality budget 1911. I have a RIA FS chambered in 10mm. It's not real pretty, but sure been a very reliable work horse!
Yeah, the RIA 10mm is one of my favorites and the quality is great, but this Charles Daly finish really surprised me. Thanks Jeff!
I love my RI 10mm they are a quality pistol
Man those grips are perfect!!!
Love the thorough breakdown you did, which is another reason your channel is top-notch!
Thanks Luken! I try to answer as many questions as possible : )
Nice Pistol reminds me of the 1911's issued to us (USMC) in 1990.
US ?? You should of had Beretta's by then!! Unless...💬
@@enricomandragona163 That change didn't happen overnight. It took quite awhile after 1985 to phase out all the 1911s.
@@Jack_Mehoff7221 I know I was there MT. ✌️
@@enricomandragona163 No, you weren't because you wouldn't have asked that.
@@Jack_Mehoff7221 look jackass now you pissed me off!! I served from 78-86 !! Just when the 1911 was being phased out!! I think I have an idea how the military operates!! Everything overlaps in all branches!! Some things take a little longer than most according to the Pecking order!! Still works that way!! What's sad is all the money the DOD wastes at taxpayer expense!! So gfys!! You got balls calling me out!!
A man who now's how to use a 1911.great video.
Love the review. Just bought one today chambered in 9mm (my first) and waiting on Washington to get it 💯🔥
1911 and the single action army revolver are two of the best looking oldest designs still being shot and used today
Not too mention the most continued oldest production handguns by a single manufacturer!! & Copied by everybody!!
That’s an excellent value for a nostalgic looking firearm. I collect Old WW1 Colts and I’d be apt to carry this gun instead of those as to not tarnish the collectibles.
I agree no harm done 👍
Then here I am having just acquired a Para-Ordnance. Wasn’t really gonna get another 1911 until I found the elusive double stack. 😂
yup ,have one ,never miss a beat. Everyone who shoots it (soft) wants it. Nope.
Thanks for the review. On my way to our local Bass pro to get one. Saw it last week and couldn't believe a 1911 for less than 500 bucks ? Wth ? Sold. Every one I've seen is 800 dollars and up.
It looks like the exact replica of the RIA 1911. Wow!!!
Sootch, I always enjoy your videos. With this one, you threw me off when you said the "Slide to frame was really tight" that looked like a good amount of movement from side to side wiggle. We all make goofs here and there, so keep up the good work.
Lol I saw that too!! 😂 Gun must of been Cold 🥶🤣
Had a Charles Daly side by side in college. So much fun.
During disassembly and assembly things are a lot less wobbly if you leave the safety on.... locks the slide while removing and replacing the barrel bushing and spring.....
This one looks a bit above the Tanfoglio 1911s, which are OK but a wee bit rough..... Nice one...
Looking at the feed ram- to barrel fit, it looks spot on...... nicely put together.... :-)
i like the 1911 handguns!!! thank you sootchoo for the video!!!
Brixia make some realy nice 1911 here in Italy, way better than the (still fairly good) Philippine's one
The fit and finish is very good, especially for the money. Thanks Alan!
America's Springfield Armory is better.
Hell No
Constantly Jamming! Way better when they were made in the Philippines by Armscor.
Nice video, I never heard of Charles daly so jumped on TH-cam n found this video n now I’m gonna go buy one lol thanks for the info 👍🏻
It was my first gun I ever bought and shes had about 1500 rounds through her and she's still running hard
Very nice. It would be cool to see a Charles Daly VS Tisas video.
Too funny! Love the out takes at the end! Just liked and subscribed because of that. There are a lot of good gun reviewer’s on TH-cam. You me smile, we all need more of that nowadays. I bought a Charles Daly 1911 yesterday. I bought it without checking reviews first. I am pleasantly surprised by this fire arm. This gun complements the Zippo lighter I carry in the woods. Great review. jj
You know that Sootch shoots the heck out of his guns. Every one seems to have some scuffs and scrapes. The sacrifices he makes for us.
What a nice looking 1911!
I noticed the Chiappa Firearms on the slide. I would be concerned that this 1911 would have problems like the Chiappa 1911 .22. I had one of those and it was a piece of junk.
Italian 1911 works fine. Gald to hear that. I'd like to shoot this model.
Crisp, Clean, Classic.
Skip the Chiappa/Charles Daly 1911. Mine had a rounded grip escutcheon/bushing and incorrectly tensioned extractor from the factory. FDE's every other shot. Not a mag or ammo issue since the R1 I fired alongside it was reliable with the same ammo and mags.
Just got an email from Palmetto State Armory and they've got a special on this same
pistol but in 9mm for $299!
The recoil doesn't seam to be to bad for a 45cal ,nice piece to have for personal collection
Saw your review and bought the pistol. But I should have taken your advice verbatum. You said, get the Field Grade. I gots the Superior Grade. Big mistake. So, what you said, I found to be true. The gun does shoot straight, is pretty accurate, enough for within 15 yards. The slide and barrel may be milled from a bar of steel, but the components like the ambi-safety are definitely cast, and they feel like fresh out of the mold, rough. The paddles are bigger then they need do be, and get in the way of a high grip. New to 1911's, but CZ etc experienced, but the safety gets in the way. The sights is why I bought the Superior Grade, which turns out the front sight does not act like a fiber optic. It's dark. Worse the a solid matt field grade. The rear sight has two fiber optic dots that shine in light, the front does not. Since they don't just sell front sights, now I have to buy a real fiber optic set, and sight the whole shabang in. Which defeats the purpose the Superior Grade. Otherwise, a quick 100 round session left a positive impression of the gun and .45ACP on this millimeter jocky. I's a keeper, with a few mods.
Next time, I follow your recommendations to the letter.
Nice lookin' pistol, made in Italy is a bonus.
Great show and thanks again 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
I had a Charles Daly compact in 45ACP in the 90s it was a nice looking gun. It was guaranteed by ARMSCOR. I SENT IT IN FOR REPAIRS they replaces it instead of repairing it. My new ROCK IS IN 9 mm and a way better shooter. Brixia has been around a long time but in those days COLT MEANT 1911! Still great guns. The 1911 is still the King.
This is my 2nd video ive watched of urs, great content and information, subbed🙌

Samuel Colt died in 1862!!!
I bought this exact gun brand new last week. Load 5 Federal 230 gr FMJ ball ammo and it fails to feed 1 each time. Used the mag that comes with the gun, Colt brand 7 rd, Chip McCormick, don’t matter. Each time one will only go halfway in the chamber. Oiled everything good. Any ideas?
Just one word,Beauty.
SIMPLY.... simple and beautiful. It does not need customization, frills... for IPSC and cr4p alike.
A rail in 2021 for a light/laser would be nice, that’s all I want extra and isnt too much to ask for when almost every other pistol has a 1913 rail for attachments underneath. The Streamlight TLR 8 G is easily my most important customization decision for my full size handguns, it makes a huge difference with performance, to have a fighting handgun without it is like going outside in a snow storm without your jacket.
$499
@@benjaminhenry5762 I visited manufacturer's website... NOT AVAILABLE/ OUT OF STOCK 😠
@@mattandrews8528 I guess the intent is to keep it original ... but, yes, from a operational point of view .. a Piccadilly-type of rail would be beneficial ...
Just went to the website to order one, and yep. They're sold out.
I’m lookin for a range gun primarily but I’m in the rock island/girsan/sds/Charles Daly. The Daly is $380 new and the others are all closer to $475 so about a hundred more for the other 3. Which one would you pick? I appreciate wisdom and would love some advice from folks who know more that me. Thank you, in advance
I'm way late, but I'd say to skip the Charles Daly. Mine had a rounded grip escutcheon/bushing and incorrectly tensioned extractor from the factory. FDE's every other shot. Not a mag or ammo issue since the R1 I fired alongside it was reliable with the same ammo and mags.
just bought my first gun and it was the charles daly 1911 field but instead of .45 it was 9mm. i cant wait for my background check to finally clear so i can pick this up its gonna be so nice.
It's got a nice Classic look. *.....Now,* can I get one in 10mm, Double Stack, Commander Model, Stainless Slide, with an Optic Cut, Night Sights, Cerakoted Aluminum Frame, and a Light Rail?!?
*OH!...* And Punisher Skull Grips!!😂
Nice video watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
Had one great gun wish I still had it
I appreciate your show and your professionalism, Sootch. I really like the musical accompaniment and wonder if you will kindly share it with me.
That is a great review for a great pistol. That’s on my buy list. Thanks
Probably ok for the money. I do not care for the Large Logo RollMark on the left side of the slide but of course that's just cosmetics. I think I would go for A Springfield Defender over this because of the improved sights and...made in 'Merica! Those used to go for similar money but currently who knows?? Nice review , as always!👍👍
That just looks a lot more slik than the original 1 the finish really looks like a much better quality and the whole thing looks like it's polished off the rough edges👍
Italy makes some of if not the best replica Cowboy Action and early American firearms. I have been looking for a WW2 replica 1911, and the Charles Daly is going to be what I buy
Your not kidding I hope they start making the old Webley Revolvers one day would love to have one
After watch review went out bought one I am vey happy with fit finish.
Great video Sootch . Great 1911
Im about to get my gun permits soon on Monday, i already paid 500$ for a RIA GI 1911, i fell in love with that 1911 and had to get it, wish me luck on Monday and Tuesday y'all... Just turn 21 so it gonna be my first time getting it too, hope it works out. I also i want to know the music of sootch00 when he present the handgun yo
I can say that the Charles Daly 1911 GI model looks better then he Springfield Amory Mil Spec. I have a Springfield Amory Mil Spec. I like it but it does not have that Military GI look so I did upgrades on it.
Just got one for 405, missed having an American icon in my hand
I just bought the Charles Daly GI model 6 months ago and it is very smooth and it it's really well-made to be honest it's pulled apart now in a being though waiting on Wilson parts
D. I have an ria 9mm gi model and Wilson extractor wouldn't fit unless you are a gun Smith
@@waterhead1359 you got the 9mm extractor? Usually you have to bend them and fit them to the particular slide most drop in pieces arent drop in and need to be fit.
@@danielwade7.62x51 I called and emailed Wilson told them I have a ria full size 9mm gi model 1911 asked if the Wilson would fit they said yes .when I received the extractor it was too big to fit the shape was different so I returned it
@@waterhead1359 yeah that's weird , but all 1911s are their owne animal , not like an ar15 plug and play you have to fit most things on a 1911.but if I were you get a good 1911 smith to look at it and make sure all the specs are right on the slide and fit one for you. Worth paying like 60 bucks for it in my opinion.
@@waterhead1359 I've got a rock island officer model to but all mine are 45 acp , I've never worked on 9mm 1911, they are a bit more finicky than the 45 is what I've heard.
Slide to frame fit is tight? lol that thing was moving almost 1/16 “
Looks exactly like a colt series 70, super nice
Bought a 9mm version of this exact pistol and from the factory the firing pin/firing pin stop was fitted very poorly. I fixed it myself, but no way was my gun fired at the factory. No big deal and my gun runs like a champ, but it shouldn’t have been allowed to ship from the factory.
Where'd you get extra mags?
ACT Mags are the ones it ships with. I bought three more off eBay at $20 each.
Nice video Sootch!
Thanks Bob!
I just bought the Charles Daly AR12 Semi auto 12 ga. shotgun and the 1911 would be a nice addon. I have other 1911s but you never can have too many of them. Great video. Lock and load.
Love 1911!
I love your videos 🙃 thx :)
I own an upgraded RIA 1911 because it was only $20 more than the standard version. The only “cons” I can name are - 1 The sheer weight of the weapon. I wouldn’t want to carry it. 2 - because of mild arthritis take down for me is a little difficult but not impossible with a 1911 takedown tool. Other than that I can’t say enough good about it.
They do make shooting gloves 🧤!! Even workout gloves help & don't scratch the finish!!
Holy crap your channel grew. I haven't been here in a while.
A beautiful pistol.
The cabelas version of the Charles Daly is without the cool grips and replacing them for a basic instead
Have you done a review on the cz rami. If not, can do one.
Last one I saw was about 800 dollars priced. Pre covid.
Interesting. I might get one.
If I want to learn and see the capability of a firearm, ammo, methods of shooting and related topics I watch Paul Barrel, Hickok45, TNN outdoors, Iraq 888, Sootch00, I like getting information from people who let you make your own opinion about the subject covered
I just picked up the TISAS I was going with the rock island also made by arscor. but after watching the factory tour of both. TISAS factory is so modern like NASA Armscor is like handmade in a big dirty garage and old tools im ex 82nd I carried a 45. TISAS is it. parkerized coating and another Sahra coating on top and cheaper. I couldn't even find anything on daily factory. probably still in phillipines made
If the Italians were to reproduce the 1900-1905 Colt ACP but with 1911 internals, then I'd buy.
Sootch how about doing a Auto Ordinance 1911A1 review. In my opinion the most accurate looking with better quality Mil Spec out there that's period correct!!
My favorite gun.
Good value!
Nice review.
1911 pistols are fun. Always fun to see yet another option. The cartridge is proven. Does not hold a box of ammo but will do a good job.
That's what I love about single stack handguns. I don't have to buy 3 20 round boxes of self defense ammo for 3 magazines.
