I normally do not get caught up in gun aesthetics, but that is hideous.

It is, I agree. But it's supposed to have a trigger pull like a 1911. Wouldnt be so bad if it werent for that rear right

Been my experience it's best to wait until you can actually get your hands on a gun to cast any sort of judgement. Just from seeing pictures...well, lots of people did only that and went 'UGH' about Glock handguns and Steyr AUG rifles back in the day. Many of them came around a little bit through the years.

FINALLY came in!







My 8th 1911. Giggity! I've always wanted a blued gun, but wasn't really hip to buying a Colt. I'm a Springfield fanboi. Gonna shoot it, then send it to my shop to have a beavertail safety fitted.

True. I've always maintained that Remington should stick to long-guns. Their handguns haven't really left their mark. Their 1911's aren't well-made, and now this.

Correction. They're 1911's manufactured from 2010 to present.

Very interesting concept. I used to carry .38 in double projectile load. Less powder and lower velocity but a double hit. Worked great in snubs and played hell with longer barrels. When I moved to a 9mm I used Glazers for a while then the cor-bon +p Shot shell. Now I make my own Gold dots. They are as close as you can get to Black Talons.

My first thought was that this "cutting edge", "one of a kind technology" was around in the 80's...
