- I just picked up a Bul Armory Government 1911 Stainless in 9mm. This is just the unboxing and a quick look. So far, it looks like it would be a good fit in our "Great Affordable 1911 Series". Range report to follow.

Those Bul 1911s are definitely the best quality 1911's at the price point, by far. Excellent fit/finish and triggers right out of the box.
Just the feel of running the slide almost reminds me of a hand-fit 1911. And you are absolutely correct - great trigger. Thanks for watching.
@@RidersRange First found out and got to hold A Bul 1911 9m two years ago at a new gun store about 20 miles away from my house.I was really impressed with how easy it was to rack the slide.This Bul 1911 really felt perfect in my hand.I've read and watched a lot of videos on this gun and haven't seen any bad reviews yet.I'm a Left-handed shooter and just wish they would put ambidextrous safeties on theses nice 1911's or at least make it optional at no or very little cost.They are hard to find in Western North Carolina.I would agree that they are the best value for the money compared to other 1911's.
Guy at the gun store I frequent (when I DO have a couple "extra bucks"!) showed me a Bul right before last X-Mas. Looked at it, and told him it was only a 9 mm. He said "Just Wait a Moment"! Came back with a .45 acp, and then I couldn't make up my mind which one I wanted the most. He said "Hell, it's nearly Christmas - just Put it on the Card"! So... I did... Got BOTH of them (and got a nice "discount" buying both at the same time, I might add...!)
Both shoot exceptionally well, very accurate, and nicely finished... Shoot as good as any other 1911 pistols I have, and can hardly believe the price of either! (Should cost a LOT more, in my opinion - but don't tell the Bul folks that! Haha!)
No problems with either so far, but I've only put about 500 rounds through them.
Thank you for watching and for adding your thoughts. When in doubt, buying both is always best.
@@RidersRange Teased the indoor shooting range owner the other day, saying "I just wanted to come by and shoot some Bul...!"...
He laughed and agreed, after showing him both of mine. (The "on-site" gunsmith was amazed with mine also, especially for the price!).
Your shooting experience mirrors mine. The slide is extremely smooth and I find the gun to be very accurate and fun to shoot. I’m glad you agree with me.
Great minds, and all that.....😎
Very nice sir! Can hardly wait for a range report. Merry Christmas
I got some more range time today and every time I shoot it, I like it more. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I managed to track one down in at a gun store down south and picked it up today from the FFL here in Michigan, my second BA 1911, bought a commander in 45 a few weeks ago.
Gorgeous 1911. Also have a Happy Christmas !!!!!!!!!!!
Very good looking and good quality for the price point. Thanks for watching and I hope you and yours have a peaceful Christmas.
Very nice looking 1911. Glad you treated yourself. I did as well, picking up a Springfield XDM Elite Compact 3.8” 10mm. I hope you enjoy your Bull. Ill be looking for the review. Have a great Christmas Sir.
Paul, thanks, as always, for watching and commenting. I shot it yesterday, so the range report will be out soon.
45 is also a bul barrel. Got mine about a week ago and absolutely love it.
It's my understanding that Bul Armory changed to the bull barrel for .45ACP about the time I did the review. Thanks for watching.
Nice looking gun. And you said the magic word “affordable”. Looking forward to seeing how it shoots and what guns you compare it too.
More to come. Thanks for watching.
Nice unboxing rider!looks like a nice 1911.
So far, I'm impressed, considering the price point.
Merry Christmas to your family and viewers. I have the 2021 versions of the magnum research desert eagle 1911’s government (stainless) and undercover (blued), both in 45 acp. They were made in Israel by BUL armory. They look almost identical to yours except for the stampings. Had to send them both back for a little warranty fine tuning to help prevent slightly intermitting feeding or ejecting problems. The 3”” is very accurate for its size, recoil not too bad for a 66 year old’s hands. The 5” stainless was accurate out of the box, I installed a fiber optic front and adjustable rear sight and accuracy only slightly improved. Before the sight change with the combat sights it was more accurate for me than my springfield range officer target and much more accurate than my sig stx. A 9 mm 1911 is on my radar if I do not find a sa35 first. SE MI can do
Will, thanks for watching and for your detailed comment.
nice christmas gift, like 1911 9mm. thanks
I took it to the range today for another workout and it REALLY is a nice gun. Thanks for watching.
@@RidersRange that is a really nice looking 1911, thanks
Unboxing is satisfying... can’t wait to see the full review.
Zeb, the full review is in the works. I've made several trips to the range and I haven't found anything negative. Thanks for watching.
@@RidersRange would you recommend it? I can't decide if I'd like the commander or Government full size. Any suggestions?
Mine has run perfectly and others I have talked with who have recently purchased a Bul Government or Commander have said the same thing, so yes, I would recommend it. My range review will be coming out in the near future. The only difference between the Government and Commander is the Commander barrel/slide is 3/4" shorter than the Government. But that also means your sight radius is 3/4" shorter.
@@RidersRange ya they seem kinda tough too find. Seem like the best bang for the buck. Cant wait too see your review
My LGS sells them just as fast as the come in.
Santa brought the exact same model yesterday! The slide and lugs fit is amazing.
Santa did you good. Working the slide on this pistol is the closest to a Wilson or Nighthawk that I have felt in a LONG time, particularly at this price range.
It looks near identical to my 2021 vintage magnum research desert eagle stainless government 45 acp 1911 made by bul in Israel. Enjoy it sir, merry Christmas to you, your family and all your viewers, he is risen. Also own the 2021 vintage magnum research desert eagle 3” undercover in 45 acp, recoil not too bad and surprisingly accurate for my 66 year old hands. SE MI
Will, thanks for watching. I believe Bul Armory does make the MR1911 for Magnum Research, which is essentially a twin of the Bul Armory 1911 Government.
I think as far as the 5” models go the bul has a bull barrel and the mr is bushing type, correct me if I am wrong.
@@Bmxr1991 this is my first venture into Bul Armory pistols, but from my research, the 9mm Government and EDC 5" models are all bull barrel, while the .45s have bushing barrels. Not sure what you mean by the "mr".
@@RidersRange sorry for the lazy typing, I meant magnum research
The magnum research 1911’s all have full length guide rods, the government has a barrel bushing, the 3” undercover and 4.33” commander models are bushing less slide and bull barrel. I can shoot much tighter groups with my government size magnum research vs my springfield range officer target both 45 acp. The springfield is a good 1911 also.
Looking forward to how it shoots! I'm on a waiting list for one of their SAS II TAC 4.25in barrel optics ready 2011s they recently announced. I recently acquired a Staccato P optics ready and want to compare them. Happy holidays!
I'd love to put the SAS TAC II 4.25 side-by-side with my Staccato P. The problem is finding one at a decent price.
@@RidersRange Gilbert of GPArms quoted $1890 for the SAS II TAC optics ready when it's available here. That's about $500 less than the Staccato P optics ready so I figure why not give one a try. It's part of my "You only live once, gotta buy and try this stuff before I retire in a couple years" spending program 😉
The LGS had two in stock this past summer, and they were gone in less than 3 days. 👍👍👍👍🎄🎄🎄🎄
The .45s seem to sell the same day they are put on display, or even before they are on the shelf. The 9s last a little longer.
Nice looking firearm. 👍
I agree. Clean lines and classic styling. Thanks for watching.
Umm now I like the looks of that , a very well dressed 1911 and if I'm correct BUL makes high quality pistols. I have the Desert Eagle Undercover 45 ACP made by BUL and I'm quite pleased with it. I'm currently debating the SIG 365X with Holosun optic. I think you with be quiet pleased with your new BUL 1911 , I sure do think its beautiful more so then the Emasary. Thanks for sharing and stay Strong 💪 brother.
So far, it is a REAL nice shooter. Range report in the works.
@@RidersRange Get to see that, I'll be waiting for that review 👍
That is a good looker
So far, I'm impressed.
very nice looking!
So far, it seems to be very well made. Range report in the works.
Nice gun, congratulations
Yes, it is. Thanks for watching.
@@RidersRange you are welcome bro
She's a beauty
Thanks. And it feels and runs great.
I like mi e very much. I had the sights switched out for trijicon HD sights. Very much better to me. I like it very much. It doesn't have the laggy recoil of my Springfield in 9mm. Watch the mags, the mec gar mags that come with have a slightly larger slot the magazine release catches to lock it in and after a little quarter they will stop locking the slide open on the last round. It seems that it is only the 10rd 9mm mec gar mags. My 9rd flush fit 9mm mags are fine.
So far, I like it. More range time needed. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@RidersRange is there ever enough range time?
Could you share which trijicon model number was it?
@@edwindaleccio4487 my apologies, it's been a rough week. It's CA128O, with the letter O at the end. They have yellow, but I like orange better. CA128Y. It has a lot to do with my vision is blurred and looking at solid black sights is difficult for me to be accurate. Enjoy
Always nice to treat yourself! Enjoy your reviews...how would you rate the quality of the Bull Armory Govt with a Dan Wesson or Springfield Armory TRP?
Chaz, this is my first experience with Bul, but it seems that the workmanship and fitting of the pistol is on a par with Dan Wesson and maybe even better fitted than the TRP. The only thing that keeps it from actually being DW quality is the use of MIM parts, while DW still uses machined parts. Time will tell is it holds up as well, but it seems to be a LOT of gun for the price.
@@RidersRange Thanks so much for that update....first hand experience is invaluable and we can see the product! I've been keeping my eye on Bull Armory 1911's/2011's hoping to get one of their 40 S&W models for USPSA Single Stack in 2022. Sounds like a winner to me! Looking forward to seeing your range footage on a future video!
Have you shot a Dan Wesson Specialist or handled one to compare it to this? The Dan Wesson is about 1k more that's why I was wondering. Thanks!
I haven't seen a Specialist in person, so I can't make the comparison. However, in my not-always-so-humble-opinion, Dan Wesson is the premier "production" 1911. DW uses machined parts, rather than the MIM parts like Bul uses (so does Kimber and many others). The big question is whether or not the DW is worth the price premium. After I get more trigger time with the Bul, I may be able to render an opinion.
Is Wilson combat parts compatible to replace the cheap mim parts?
They should be, though many parts may require some minor fitting.
Can you add a video for Cleaning it? I just bought one and would love to see you dissamble and where to cleanm and lube. its easy to rack
There are a lot of good videos out on maintaining a 1911. The main difference for a 9mm Bul 1911 is the bull barrel, which, unlike the .45, doesn't have a barrel bushing.
Wilson Combat has a long video, but valuable for bushing barrel guns:
th-cam.com/video/fW1pJvi5yIw/w-d-xo.html
A couple years ago I did a video on disassembling a Staccato C that has a bull barrel.
@@RidersRange Yeah found a video and read the instructions thhat showed me how to get the slide off . I just put it back on. Not as easy as my M&P shield EZ
@@siaalpha 1911s do require a certain touch to get things back together. Avoiding the "idiot scratch", as it's called" takes some care. It'll become second nature after a few times.
Did you get the 9mm, or the .45? Commander, or full-size?
@@RidersRange Bul 1911 Goverment 9mm...its purdy...will goto range tomorrow to shoot some more and sell my ez380
@@RidersRange hey....Shot it for the first time today, then completely dissembled and cleaned. It was easy to do and I love my 1911 Goverment 9mm. remolding my old kydex now to fit it. what a wonderful gun and your video is awesome. Thank you
Pretty sweet, lets see how it shoots.........
Spoiler alert: I shot it. I like it. First shots review shortly.
💥😎4 EHT MHTIROGLA 👍🇺🇸
NICE PIECE...DID U SAY ITS IN 9MM OR 45ACP?
HOW MUCH DID IT RUN U?
THNX!
This one is in 9mm. They also make it in .45, and both calibers also come in Commander size. Less than $900 out the door.
Did anyone else notice that they spelled Stainless wrong on the label of the box? “STAINLEES” I certainly hope they have a higher level of attention to detail in the manufacturing of their weapons...!
So far, the fit, finish and detail of this Bul 1911 more than make up for the failure to properly translate to the English language. Range report in the very near future.
@@RidersRange glad to hear that, and looking forward to your report - especially since I just ordered one yesterday!
@@AnthonyVenturaJr I've been to the range with it twice now, and the more I shoot it, the more I like it.
@@RidersRange woo hoo!! Can’t wait to get mine...
@@AnthonyVenturaJr I shot mine again today. The more I shoot it, the more I like it.
Very nice, 2k price?range
Less than half that. VERY affordable.
How did it shoot
I've had it to the range twice so far and I really like it. Range video in the works.
Thanks RR. Great job. Good info. God bless.
LETS GO BRANDON
Ward, thank you for watching and commenting.
Next time please do a better unboxing other than your car
That was just an excited teaser. That's why I do follow-up videos.
