  1. I can get brand new 1911s of more than decent quality for less than that.

    1. I explained this, again, and, most recently in April.

      Who fucking cares that you can get a new one? But wait, you can't.

      Nobody makes an M1911A1.

      I've checked.

      There's Government Model clones galore, but no M1911 or M1911A1's available new.

      Get to reading the archives here, I go over it more than once.

      If you'd signed your comment, I'd have given you a link or three.
