Here she is- my 1st 1911- Taurus PT1911SS

Featured Replies

Haven't shot her yet, but here she is. Broke her down and cleaned her good. Got some .45 Azoom snap caps and ready for the range when I get some time and ammo :)

 

She sure is pretty and feels good. Can't wait to break her in!

 

I now how the military clasics as my Handgun collection.

 

The 1911 and the 92 FS :)

Congratulations, She is a beauty. Makes me want a 1911 even more now. Cant wait to hear how she shoots.

Congrats. I have the PT 1911 and an M-9 and the both shoot great and very accurate...great groupings.

mikey, that is one nice lookin' piece of weaponry there. Range report when you get a chance please.

Full range report required.

 

Congrats... shoot it like you rented it.

Supply the ammo and you can all take turns :)

The same thing happens at Bullet Hole, we already trashed lrizzo's SA 1911. Bad trigger, shoots to the right.

Congrats. Sweet looking 1911.

Nice. Have fun with it.

I have been dry firing the sh!t out of her (snap caps of course).

 

I do like the trigger so far.

Nice looking gun. Taurus always put some big ugly graphic on the side of their guns that turned them pimpalicious looking. This one is nice and subdued. I like it.

67GTO...

You can get past them because there are very few issues with this model. Taurus does some things well, some not quite as well. They seem to have hot the mark on these. I do beleive these are the same frames that SA uses (Imbel Mnufactured) and the parts added on are all high quality. Basically what they have done is legoed (new word??) a 1911 together. The parts are mostly from outside suppliers and they are just putting the guns together. I think they only thing they are actually making is the slide.

 

Get one... I have a permit burning a whole in my pocket and I think I am going to take some of this overtime I am racking up and get one.

Actually, I believe every piece of the PT1911 is manufactured in house by Taurus ( I think I read that somewhere).

 

Either way, seems pretty well built to me.

 

Can't wait to find some ammo and get to the range.

 

Dicks in EB had no 45 yesterday (they did have 380 tho).

I wouldnt hesitate to pick up a taurus 1911 or the 92fs clone.

 

the plastic fantastic pistols...... another story.

 

I prefer the frame mounted decocker on the Taurus to the slide mounted one on the Beretta 92FS. You can get a Beretta with a frame mounted decocker, but it is really expensive.

Sweet pistol. I own one and have put a boatload of rounds through it without any hiccups. Enjoy!

Taurus PT 1911 torture test.

 

Very Impressive.

Lol, those Philippines love their guns

 

And pepsi apparently :D

 

Looks similar to the torture test todd jarret did, but i like this guy more.

 

Wear gloves next time :D

Look at the shooters grip in that video. He takes a traditional right-hand grip but then reverses the role of the trigger finger. Right hand grasping gun, index finger anchored along frame. Left hand wrapped around and right hand and under trigger guard, index finger on trigger.

^^^ I noticed his grip too...that's pretty interesting. I never saw anyone shoot like that before...
