Bud's 1911 made in Turkey

[morrisonhawk]

Does anyone have any info on the 1911 that Bud's is pushing called the Tisas Classic 1911-45 . They are offering it at a lower than normal price and I just wondered if it was worth looking into. I have 1911- itis and have difficulties passing up even the more expensive models.

I was bored and curious...so I did a little research. What others are saying is you would be better off looking into an ATI or RIA. No experience here. I've only shot 1911s that said Colt on the side. Just google 1911 and either ATI or RIA. Nice prices on both. Just my seeing as how you weren't getting any help yet.

I asked a friend in Turkey. He said the company making them is a decent company, but he couldn't vouch for the model they were making for sale in the states.

The many reviews on Buds are all positive.

Thanks for the info...I know it is tempting but I might be worried as to where it would have to be sent if it needed repair. Nothing was said about a warranty. Also I have a Colt New Agent 9mm that I carry and would like to get some extra after market mags. Does Wilson, McCormick or any of the others make a small size 9mm....and can a bumper be added to a mag that doesn't have one?

Reviews are all positive. Thing that scares me is I do not know much about the manufacturer. I think for a cheaper 1911 I will go with RIA.

Have you ever seen a truly quality gun made in Turkey? Have you ever owned one for 10 years?

The Sarsilmaz is manufactured in Turkey. From what I've read about them, they sound like they are well liked. Anyone have any experience with them?
