I'm happy to see that Ruger made the cut here. I purchased a Ruger SR1911 stainless model with the G.I. 5" barrel and it is my EDC weapon of choice. The very first time I took it to the range I was very impressed with the accuracy of it. I'm not a great shooter by any means but at 10 yards I was still able to put 8 out of 10 shots in the "X" range and 10 range. The other 2 shots that went a little wide (I really need to work on my trigger control. LOL!!) ended up in the 9 range so I am very happy with this fire arm.
That would indicate how ignorant the operator is...... They are infallible if properly maintained.And anyone who believes they require breakin if full of shit or purchased a really expensive improperly assembled example
@@BLACKWOLF-1911 I would do one of 2 things. Take it too the gun shop and see if it has a defect and 2 Polish the feed ramp for smoother feeding. Sometimes a little tlc is all it needs. Mine shoots anything I feed it including my many types of reloads.
@@stuartmarkman769 I sent it back to Springfield and they said they tuned the extractor and polished the feed ramp. Went to the range, same problem. I sent it to nighthawk custom and 1,000 dollars later, it runs perfectly.
I used to own a Taurus PT 1911 that I really loved! It was a great pistol at a great price. Sadly, I had to sell it off to pay some bills but I have since then picked up 2 additional 1911's. And I really love Taurus' warranty too. Not many gun manufacturers will offer a life time warranty on a weapon if you are the original owner. The Taurus is a great choice in my humble opinion.
My EDC is the RIA Tac Ultra HC 16 RD 10MM with Full Rail and dust cover and Threaded Barrel for Only $759.00 2 years ago and the .45 Tac Ultra is on my Nightstand, LOVE Them BOTH!
IMHO I'll say it and it's from experience the Tisas 1911's are not only the BEST bang for the buck I actually find them on par with my Colts. I have more than a few 19911's and have built many over the last 40 years so I didn't need another but I was in my FFL's shop and he asked me if I ever had seen a Tisas. I hadn't so he handed me a 1911A1 model. Perfect GI finish, great trigger, very tight lockup and it felt like a quality build. Then he told me it had a forged slide, frame and a hammer forged barrel and I could have it for just over 400 bucks, color me stunned. He had a half dozen models there and one peaked my interest, it was called the "Tank Commander". A Commander model in 9mm it caught my eye, Imagine my surprise when I pulled the slide back and saw a RAMPED, forged barrel. I had to try it out so it came home with me for UNDER the 400 dollar mark. I took it home in it's hard plastic case (looked like a copy of a Colt case) and disassembled it and I noticed no machining marks inside and all parts were built to GI spec. Reassembled and lubed I walked outside and ran through a couple mags of 124gr rounds. Great trigger, very accurate and no malfunctions I proceeded to grab every loose round of 9mm I had both factory leftovers, handloads and different weights and style of bullet. Loaded them into mags and 225 rounds later again no malfunctions. Okay then, the following week I went back and thinking that another build was on the bench I bought the 1911A1 I had seen before. I bought the complete pistol with hard plastic case for less than a Caspian frame and slide would cost me, way less. Went through the same procedure as the 9mm with it and again no malfunctions resulting softball sized groups at 50ft. The slide was tight and it received a Bomar sight set, the action was slicked up and a skeletonized trigger was installed. It went out for some Cerakote and after returning it easily outshot my Gold Cup and still cost me way less than my Ruger SR1911 all in, I sold that Ruger and kept the Tisas. Even if your an experienced hand or a first timer IMHO you can't beat the Tisas offerings especially for a new 1911 shooter. I've had a half dozen across my bench in the last 2 years for friends and family and never a problem and have gotten many complement's even with the factory dolled up offerings and the 1911A1 can still be found under 400 bucks, the model with the Novak sights and a few goodies might run you another 75, honestly the best deal in town for a fantastic weapon.
I'll put in more overtime at work and save and budget my cash for my 1911s! Colt series 70,kimber,Ed brown and Wilson's are what I strive for but there are some great pistols mentioned in this video.
Yes, I own most of these 1911 pistols mentioned in the video. The Bul Armory 1911 punches “well above” it’s price range. This video is probably AI generated and not based on ownership of these pistols.
I have two Tisas, one on my hip in a reproduction M1917/42 holster as I write this. One is the Special Service type with a flat back strap. The other is the W W II M1911A1 in every way but the ejection port. Nobody makes a slide with the original ejection port new anymore. I do use 8 round magazines. I have double diamond wood grips with brass screws on both mine. I just like the look and the feel of wood in the hand. My first 1911 was the Ruger Military Model back in the 1990's. It was the inexpensive gun back in the day.
I've had 6 1911s and probably a hundred hand guns. My Tisas Duty in 9mm is the most acurate pistol I've ever owned I also have the Tisas Carry in 45. It's great as well. Both shoot better than my Colt.
I went into a gun store yo huy my first gun. I'd been online, and was thinking Sig P226X5. They had a large selection,but no P226X5. My eye caught this Government Cokt 45 1911XSE. Like new. It was heavy, and kind of expensive, but i knew the second i handled it the first time it was for me. Its a GREAT gun.
i found a nice colt 1911a1 that was made in 1942 for 300$ it turned out to be a fully customized pistol polished honed and ready for the national match at camp perry. and the kicker is the box of extras it cam with. witch turned out to be all of its original parts barrel everything plus a micro adj rear sight and 3 early production two tone mags that i sold for more than the gun cost me. it was the best 1911 in the shop but it was in disguise lol
I have two Kimbers: a full size Classic Stainless, and a 3" Eclipse stainless. Neither malfunctions, and I think Kimbers are the best value for the money.
@@claiborneeastjr4129 I’ve owned 4 Kimber 1911’s one must have had a bad barrel- it was beautiful, functional and spit bullets every where- I had another Kimber staircase 5”- Very Accurate! Functioned perfectly. A pro tle ii and. Pro carry ii 4” models- both very good and accurate. The TLE ii , I got new. It was accurate but not more accurate than the Ruger sr1911. Still - tritium sights.. and conceal ability. #1
Funny ATI 1911A1 is not on this list being it was made in Philippines in and Old Colt Plant with org Colt Machines. Cost only about $400. I own one of these and with less then $50 in mods in it and it is amazing to shoot. No wiggle between slide and frame with nice tight fit. I added a full guide rod and spring for easy take down and did a ramp polish it is smooth to shoot with little recoil.
I had an ATI 1911A1. It was an absolute POS. I have a Taurus PT1911 now, and it's been stone reliable so far. I would've loved to have gotten the Ruger 1911, but I couldn't afford it.
Hire somebody to actually narrate the damn video because when you're talking about the Rock Island Armory and it has a nice tight Barrel bushing and that way it'll feed any bullet whether it be jacketed or cast, the barrel bushing fit has nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not it'll feed a cartridge!
When you're talking about a specific model you shouldn't be flashing through photos of other more expensive models. You'll confuse newbies. Stink with photos of what you're talking about.
Springfield 1911A1. Best hand gun ever made. Dependable, long lasting. Accurate. When your life depends on it. I have the mil spec edition, factory trigger upgrade etc.
I had one. Got a good price, so I snatched it up. Total 110% piece of $H¡t. Quality control was so bad that I once used it as a paperweight. Went out to the grocery store. Came home an hour later and the stack of papers were scattered all over the house. This clunker was supposed to be a target gun, but it wouldn't feed target ammunition. Got so digusted with it that I took it to the local auto wrecking yard with one of those big-ass shredders that turn old cars into confetti and threw the POS into it.10 minutes later, the shredder itself got so sick, it threw up all over the junkyard. Never again.
If you’re gonna recommend cheap guns you think somebody should BUY, then don’t show them having major MALFUNCTIONS like the Girson at 8:42 and 8:50 in the video. Piss poor.
I don't like any of the 1911's that have the upturned hook above the grip. The military model with the short down turned grip hook is most pleasing and doesn't snag on things.
It's called a beavertail, and it curves upward to allow a higher grip while protecting against the slide bite. If you don't like it, just buy a surplus GI grip safety and drop it in. Most beavertail grip safeties also have a "memory bump," invented by Ed Brown, to ensure the grip safety is properly depressed to unlock the trigger when gripping the pistol. GI grip safeties dont have this memory bump.
So you talk about the Auto-Ordinance 1911A1 being as close to the original as anything, but all you show is a massively customized 1911 that is about as close to an original 1911A1 as it is to a Chevy Nova? Who edited this? Stevie Wonder?
@jamesorth1521 not for everyone. Gotta pick the gun that's yours. You no the feeling pick it up an it just feels like home . Don't matter what gun it is. Comfortable means you're gunna shoot well. I have big orge hands 2011 double stacks feel great in my hands ✋️
You should check out the rock island m1911 a2, its a double stack 45 1911 and it takes Para ordnance p14 magazines. Para was also the first one to have a double stack 1911
This shit is clown shoes. The next generation of “experts” for you. I feel like their compensation should be reversed for misrepresentation and time wasted
Antiquated action and capacity. Only good for the collection. Inferior in every way to modern handguns. It might make you sad, but it's entirely true. Yes, I own one. It stays in the drawer with the police revolver, the Derringer, and the Tokarev. Good for collectors, garbage for any practical use.
This is like discussing the best Model T Fords for the money. From roughly the same era, they were amazing machines in their time. During the century since either was introduced, better products have emerged. A Model T is certainly a nice collectors item, and they can be used now and then when one craves nostalgia, but I wouldn't consider one for a daily driver. Same goes for shooting a 1911. They are interesting artifacts, but have been overshadowed by modern replacements.
Until recently the US Delta Force used them. US Special Firces used them. Thr FBI HRT and SWAT teams used them (Springfield Armory Custom Professional, handbuilt models.) LAPD SWAT and SIS use them. Hhhmmm. The top tier Special Forces guys use what you consider an antiquated curiosity museum piece. Must still be pretty good.
😂 I witnessed a conversation at a gun show between an old geezer and a young punk about the 1911s. It ended with the geezer calmly telling the kid “that gun was firing long before you were born and it will be firing long after you have passed.” You do you, God bless
Lets let AI chose the slide show so it doesn't even show the pistols being talked about. Double the stupidity by not even watching the video for editing........trash...
I have shot everyone of these guns and found the girson would not be my first choice, I have also found that most have a crappy magazine but if you use the wilson combat magazine it will stop most all malfunctions. The Ruger 1911 comes with a (good) magazine compared to the non-US made guns. I personally carry a Colt Goldcup for the last 54 years and have neve had a malfunction of any kind.

I love that a malfunction was included in the video to show how great the budget 1911’s can be
That would indicate how ignorant the operator is......
They are infallible if properly maintained.And anyone who believes they require breakin if full of shit or purchased a really expensive improperly assembled example
@ all of my Ed browns needed a break in. They are very well assembled.
My first 1911 was a gift from my late BIL, a retired Green Beret Colonel: This is a REAL 1911, SN from 1918, which was issued to troops in WWI.
That is a very nice gift, he must have liked you. I have a Norinco that is a good working gun but I would like to have a nice BBQ gun in 38super.
Showing images of other 1911s instead of the one in particular 1911 as you discuss each one is very annoying.
AI
I have a Springfield Armory 1911A1band it has never let me down. It shoots anything I feed it and never had a jam.
That's amazing. I bought a new T.R.P. that won't feed anything.

Dependable, long lasting. Accurate. When your life depends on it. I have the mil spec edition, factory trigger upgrade etc.
BEST 1911? Colt Series 70 Gold Cup. I have spoken.
Best FOR THE MONEY, meaning pistols that are less expensive; Colt isn't known for inexpensive anything.
I had one. Got a good price, so I snatched it up.
Total 110% piece of $H¡t.
Quality control was so bad that I once used it as a paperweight. Went out to the grocery store. Came home an hour later and the stack of papers were scattered all over the house. This clunker was supposed to be a target gun, but it wouldn't feed target ammunition.
Got so digusted with it that I took it to the local auto wrecking yard with one of those big-ass shredders that turn old cars into confetti and threw the POS into it.10 minutes later, the shredder itself got so sick, it threw up all over the junkyard.
Never again.

When the grip safety is pressed it releases the trigger midway through its movement. Beaver tail helps your grip. WTF
Made it thru the first gun then the annoying AI voice got to be too much.

Agree
The 1911 Pistol that are your best bet for the quality you get for the price are the Shooters Arms Military model and the Tisis U.S.GI Model.
The only bad 1911 I ever bought was a Shooters Arms.
I really like this channel. The voice is very soothing. Liked and Sub'd
As much as I love my 1911s. I love my 2011s even more. Just all around a better tool in every way.

Best is a wilson.
