HIGH STANDARD USGI 1911 45ACP PISTOL

After fixing the Grip Screw/Shim into the Frame with Locktite I was able to fire the gun. It is your typical 1911; it is traditional, yet lacked a Lanyard Loop which I added as I wanted a 1911 as close to what I carried in the Army as an MP. It functioned flawlessly (50 Rounds in 10 Mags). I bought Colt GI Style Brand New Magazines (9) and the supplied 8 Round Magazine, two did not lock back the slide but all functioned with 5 Round Magazines (as we carried on duty plus new mags it is better not to top them off. All functioned so I am satisfied. I got decent accuracy, I knew I was not buying a Target 1911 that was not the intent. Decent Basic Gun without paying too much. Quality Control would have cought the stripped screw into the frame, as it is I had to fix it. If it shoots loose I will return it! Then I will get a SIG.

I have owned one for quite a few years now and love it. Reliable to shoot and can't recall any firing issues. I've put a lot of different brands in it and shoots them all. Highly recommend for a first 1911 as it was mine.

The Screw into the Lower Receiver that your grip screw goes into was stripped from the factory so I have had it to the Gun Smith to get the mess with Locktite I caused and the cleaned it more and because I cannot re assemble properly it is back to the Gun Smith (my fault, maybe) and it still has not been to the range yet. Had a chance to buy the Remington and probably should have. Have had Co lt long ago and Kimber Custom Target II, both no problems but I wanted a GI Configuration. Not Satisfied!
