I appreciate the advice. I had no idea what I bought when I got my first (and only, so far) 1911, guy had a gun that looked cool, I had cash in hand and just bought it...pretty sure I overpaid for what it is. Don't want to do the same thing with my first AR
Pm your Breakroom buddies before you buy and you would have a hard time going wrong. There is a lot of experience around here. I hear that CM has over a hundred years building, buying, and selling 1911's.
