Texas Shooter 35 Posted February 18, 2012 I'm usually more of a function over form guy. I care more about how something works and not so much about appearances. Until I saw this beauty. This is a picture of the mods one of the guys on the Taurus forums added to his Taurus 1911. IMHO, it's absolutely gorgeous. I'm in love. Yeah, I like this a lot. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RubberBullets 65 Posted February 19, 2012 Ive stated before I am not a fan of wood grain... but this.. would be the only exception. I like the silver/nickel break up added to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

o_gabs 0 Posted November 21, 2012 For less tahn $800 you can make something like that or even better since pt1911 is not that expensive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BullzeyeNJ 104 Posted November 21, 2012 I assume that's a 45acp, if so then the comp is not all that effective and therefore unecessary. A low pressure cartridge like 45acp will not utilize the advantages of the comp fully b/c it thrives on gases created by the cartridge. The comp will still work but not as well if it was a high pressure cartridge like 38 super. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maksim 1,504 Posted November 21, 2012 I like the gun, minus the comp... but give them a break, at least they support the shooting sports, even got a sponsored USPSA shooter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
