We review a very true to form 1911A1 Government model 45 by @sdsimports
This gun retails for less the $400 currently - let's find out how it performs with the first rounds fired on the clock, at a match.
Aside from it just working, I think my favorite thing is that the slide markings are very subtle. They didn't go the route of most manufacturers, and treat the 1911 slide like a billboard. Very understated, goes perfectly with the vibe of the whole gun.
Love your reviews. Even when you don't like something, the manufacturers reaction is telling. E.g. Desert Tech taking the time to acknowledge the criticism and addressing it.
I had kind of written off 1911s because they're so boutique nowadays (seriously, how come a hundred year old design is so expensive?), but this is a fascinating option
When we got these in our shop I was amaze to see they were the first reproduction of the original GI 1911s that still used the wide body hammer. That is the one thing that even Rock Island doesn't use on theirs.
According to the TISAS USA website, the price is currently $439.95, but the pistol now comes with two magazines. Also, it looks like most of their 1911 pistols are available in both .45ACP and 9x19mm.
I wont buy a non American made product. But these pistols have been nice for a long while. Not sure why you have to spend 800.00 to 1000.oo dollars to get an american made pistol thats built right. Dan wessons used to be good buy under Bob Serva. But now they are getting pricey. Ill be picking up my new colt tuesday,im just hoping that for 970.00 dollars total i get a well fit pistol. But its sad that you can rack the slide on a 400 dollar tisas and know the barrel is fit right and the slide is fit. I think they are better guns than rock island myself. Tisas builds all their guns to some iso9000 spec or something like that. They test them frozen and all kinds of tests. At first they were cast frames. Now they are shipping them forged. They make a few other guns that people really like. They all have cold hammer forged barrels. I wont buy BUL pistols either because ill never support israel, You will all find out why at some point. Cant talk about that on youtube.
IF YOU FIELD STRIP FOR CLEANING KEEP IT CLEAN! YOU"LL HAVE NO PRO BLEM'S
I bought one of these a year and a half ago. It came in a cardboard box with one magazine and the plastic grips. I bought it as a range toy to save the wear and tear on my Colt and my CMP 1911. I have fired several hundred rounds through it with no problems. I have used several types of magazines with no failures. For the money it is a keeper.
Mine needed some filing on the mag release to get it to take wilson combat magazines. Otherwise a perfectly serviceable pistol.
It's a home run. Get one NOW. Mine came with 2 mags. Your FFL might have shorted you.
Just from personal experience, the fact that it used several makes of magazine and didn't have failure to feed malfunctions is the selling factor.
This review came just in time! I live in Turkey and soon to be in age to get a gun license in a month and I was planning to buy the same 1911 and this help a ton. Keep up the great work, you guys rock!
Thank you for the review. It is nice to see an honest, fair review of affordable, not cheap, firearms. I look forward to more similar reviews from you. Thanks again. Happy Holidays to however you celebrate.
The classic Karl and Pistol adventure! I enjoy this content a lot, reminds me of the old era kit VS series you used to run.
Can’t wait to see more of this pistol on the channel, thanks for all you do!
Great review. Got one a few years ago and it came in a cardboard box with nothing extra. I guess they started adding more stuff to it since then
Recently picked on up on PSA and its been a great gun so far. No issues, accurate out of the box. I'm impressed by Tisas for making a solid 1911.
As always, excellent content, and I always look forward to new stuff from Inrange. I’ve got the black cerakote duty model of this and it’s been great. No frills, no bells and whistles, and I don’t expect anything else. Simple, effective, reliable. I’ve fed it cheap range fmj, good hp, and used several different mags - all with only the very rare feed issue.
I bought one of these a year and a half, maybe two years ago. I was waiting for the price to drop and glad I did. I use it as a farm/ranch pistol and it gets treated no better than my boots and I absolutely love the fact that I don't have to treat it like a princess because it was relatively cheap. No issues whatsoever and I've used Tula and regular brass ammo through it. The sights are as good as I could wish for out of the box. I recommend this pistol to all my family and friends.
I ran one of these at Woodland Brutality 2022, it worked pretty well. Mine didn't like split follower mags, but with modern style 7rd Mec-Gar mags it did the job
