Very nice! I like the black frame with the SS slide.

Very nice! I like the black frame with the SS slide.

It not only looks great, it shoots great too.

Smith & Wesson E-Series 1911 (SW1911SC)

1st 1911, well first one I bought that made it home with me!

Very nice Smith you have there. I've been kicking around the idea of picking up up a S&W 1911 for a while now based on Bob at PSS recommendation. While yours is a higher end model, I've heard Bob say a couple of times that he feels Smith's basic E series 1911 is the best out of the box 1911 you can get for under $1000. I'm tempted to see if he's right.

Funny, he said the same thing about the SA "Loaded" he sold me.

It's funny you mention that. He made that comment to me while I was fondling a Springfield Loaded. Either he's had a change of heart, or he's crazy as a bed bug.

Either way, I think you will have a nice pistol. A friend of mine has one of the S&W's and really likes it. It was on my list, but the SA showed up first, so I snagged it.

I love me this thread! I'm pretty sure I played earlier, but here's the current stable...

I agree, I love my SW1911. I haven't had a problem in the 2 years I've owned it!

How bout this?

That'll do!

A few months ago another officer and good friend of mine made me an offer that I couldn't refuse. He asked me if I was in the market for another pistol, so I asked him if a one legged duck swam circles. Soon we exchanged $850 for a Kimber Warrior. It's a gently used and carried duty weapon that he bought new and has only put about 300 rounds by his estimate. Since then I've put 500 flawless rounds through it with a mix of WWB and Speer Gold Dots (since I care enough to send the very best). It's got some holster wear, and is by no means a safe queen.....perfect for carry and duty if you ask me. I think I got a pretty good deal. What say you?

The detail strip and clean prior to using frog lube to give it some proper lubrication. My buddy even though he's a serious gun nut, and certified glock armorer had never done a detail strip and cleaning......she was a bit of a dirty girl.

^^^Very nice pistol!

 

[iSaladbar]

has anybody had Black Nitride done to your 1911? and if you send the barrel in do they mask the inside of the barrel off or can that be done as well?

 

[iSaladbar]

my SA 1911

Still debating what to do with the finish.... thinking of doing a sniper gray cerekote for frame and then black for the slide....or possibly even a Black Nitride from a local place here in town....idk....decisions decisions....

just finished cleaning up the slide
