Was left a R-R 1911 by my uncle to his “favorite” nephew. Same story… a tighter bushing took a “rattler” with dubious accuracy to pistol that my local range officer embarrassed me with. Had S&W 59’s and a few others.. alway enjoyed (and respected) the 1911 and the late Sgt. who left it to me.

I WORK FOR A LOCAL SHERIFF OFFICE AND WE CAME ACROSS A DUPLICATE SERIAL NUMBER REM RAND 45 AND A COLT THAT SUPPOSEDLY THE ORGINAL WAS DESTROYED BUT WE HAVE THE WEAPON. AS FAR AS THE MILITARY IS CONCERNED, IT’S DESTROYED BY SHOWED UP AGAIN 20YEARS AFTER IT WAS DESTROYED. MAN, TALK ABOUT DURABILITY!!!!!!

I have a US Army Remington Rand built in 1943 and out shot every modern 45 acp in the match. You can bet that my life can depend on this fine weapon. But an opinion is like an asshole everyone has one. Some assholes have more negitive opinions. AS we say in war have a nice day!!!!!!!!!!

I had always heard that the old 1911 were purposefully “sloppy” for practical reasons of interchangeability and durability similar to the AK-47

With the bounty of aftermarket parts available, there is no reason to carry an inaccurate or unreliable 1911. Good commercial magazines are other items that are much better than GI issue. If you’re packing a .45, it might make sense to pony up for a couple.
