Very nice trade Rob, I've got the same model. It has a great trigger, accurate, runs well, a solid 1911. The only thing I did was change out the plastic grips for some Altamont wooden fingergroove grips. One bit of advice, don't keep your thumb too high with your grip or that hammer will give you a good bite. I only had to learn that lesson one time to not do it again lol. Anyway take care and God bless.
Yeah that's a problem I run into. That's partially why I let the tanker go. And picked up the tank commander. I got a lot of hammer bite from that gun. Hopefully I can just readjust my grip like you suggested and that will help me out. If not I'll put a commander hammer on it lol
Well this makes my second Tisas 1911 and I also have the PX9 Gen 3 which is an amazing gun. They make some quality stuff. Thanks for watching I appreciate it
@@HamiltonOutdoorsi just got one and yesterday mine jammed and the slide is really hard to pull back sometimes then at other times really loose but first 1911 so not sure if normal I looked all around online but no info on that
Just a suggestion but try disassembling the the opposite way you did. Push the guide rod in first and turning the barrel bushing counter clockwise releasing spring pressure. Then operate your slide in position, then remove the slide stop. It will be much easier to.
You did well on that trade Rob. Hammer bite was the reason the former owner ponied up all of that trade stock and for the like new condition of the Service model.
Well I had checked it before I traded and after I traded and. And I've never loaded it so I was pretty sure it was unloaded but you know never hurts to check again. Thanks for watching I appreciate it
You made a Awesome trade, my friend. Great looking 1911. I have always had good service. Out of those little 1911 i’ll be watching for the video on that one out at your range 👍👍👍👍
I intend to replace the sear spring to, hopefully, improve the trigger pull, the main spring to lighten the work of cocking the slide, and a recoil spring just because. After about 50 rounds (more tomorrow) it is beginning to slick up. Very well made pistol I haven't gotten to the mechanical works but they should be good At this price a few bucks to improve the handling is not unreasonable.
I bought the Turkish made TISAS 1911a1 45ACP”US Army” which is best USGI reproduction for “as issued” 1911A1. It’s CHF barrel can’t beat forged Frame and slide and zero malfunctions. It’s 4.5 lbs trigger makes it my choice over my SA “Mil-Spec” 1911A1, at 25 yards as my match pistol.
You got a good trade. Those GI sights are ok with good eyes but tough on bifocal impaired people. 👓 Apreciate you helping out our companies in TN. 😂 SDS Imports / Tisas USA has some good products. That 45 should ring some steel. 👊💥
Nice! I have one of those on my wish list! I got to shoot my cousins tisas 1911 duty 5" 9mm yesterday and I am still amazed with the trigger! I said "woops-dang" about 3 times it surprised me with how good the trigger is. I want a 45 but after shooting that 9mm version I may want that first lol! Thanks for sharing and have a good one!
They are making some awesome guns. Definitely one worth picking up. But if I were buying one and not trading for it I would get the service special. Has a commander hammer and a little better sites. And it's the same money.
@usualsuspect5173 I think that pin on the bushing wrench is for the hammer spring housing pin. I never heard of using a pin to push out the slide stop. That spring deal on reassembly was unique.
Nice but I'll give you a little tip.....put your slide on and pin in then push in plunger and rotate bushing. Much easier thay way and less danger of the infamous takedown pin scratch
Yes I have used about every method there is to disassemble a 1911. And you're right putting that pin in before you put pressure on the gun with the spring definitely saved you from making the dummy scratch on your 1911
Tisas is killing it! I just got the US 1911A1 GI model and it’s awesome! Wilson combat 47D mags feeds HST which is awesome because in 45 those HST are all I trust hollow point wise! I’m glad I got this gun for under 400$ because they’re going to go up! I believe mine is the newer model because it doesn’t say army on the slide 🤷🏼♂️ mine says US 1911A1 and the ZIG marking is under the frame instead of on the side of slide
I like the GI model as well I just have a hard time seeing those little sights. Just wish they would put the sites from the service special on this gun. They're just a little bit taller
That's a thought for those blessed be able to drop $1K to $2K for a 1911. Pray God they never need it for self defense but if they do that 1911 is going to the evidence locker and they might not get it back. I have a Tisas Service Special on my hip as I write this. I put wood double diamond grips on it because that is a personal preference. I want to get there M1911A1 US Army model because many reviews that are vets who carried the 1911 say it is 99% accurate. Modern 1911's are all made with the wider ejection port, even more than the expansion from the 1911 to the 1911A1. So no new production replica is going to be exactly like the original was. I have contacted them and said that since they already make 2 of the original 1911 parts, the flat main spring and housing, they should make a replica M1911. I also want to get there M45A1 clone because it has gotten many good review as well.
Hope they are a good company and take care of you. Because that's what really makes the company is their customer service. And how they take care of the product after you buy it

I have a Tisas U.S.Army 1911A1 model. I love the pistol have put wood grips on it. It shoots and functions well.

SDS is importing some Sweet Turkish pieces. That’s a nice one You got there , Bud.
Thanks Richard I appreciate it thank you for watching Hope you had a great weekend
I appreciate your reassembling demonstration. I’m not great at it so I could use all the help I can get! Looks like a good inexpensive gun to work on.
Thank you for watching I appreciate it I'm glad that you video was of some help
Good trade! A friend of mine owns the same Tisas 1911 .45 Service! He liked it so much he now owns 3 different Tisas 1911s!!
Well this makes my second Tisas 1911 and I also have the PX9 Gen 3 which is an amazing gun. They make some quality stuff. Thanks for watching I appreciate it
I bought my son a .45 1911a1 us army with the wood grips for hs graduation. He loves it!! I decided i definitely needed one for myself.
Tisas is making some great guns. Definitely worth more than what they're asking for them.

Yes probably that, and I just got done shooting it and it shoots about 4 to 5 in to the left with three different types of ammunition.
So glad you double checked it I've seen so many accidents right after it's unloaded
Well I had checked it before I traded and after I traded and. And I've never loaded it so I was pretty sure it was unloaded but you know never hurts to check again. Thanks for watching I appreciate it

Thank you for watching Al I've been watching your videos and you're doing some very nice guns lately. Keep up the good work my friend
Very cool. But some rubber Houge 1911 grips on it. They're awesome.
I think I got something special from one of my viewers as far as grips go. coming for this 1911

They are definitely a well-made gun well worth the money they're charging for them. They'll go up in price as people catch on to them.

Yes that big 230 grain slug should rings more steel. I just ordered me another steel target from eBay Make it Ring targets

WOW Rob , That`s SUPER DUPER .45 pard !!
Thanks for watching Bill I appreciate it Hope you had a great weekend
I got a brand new one 'bout a month ago from PSA (same model) for $299, I dressed it up a little and it shoots like a high end target pistol
You can tell a TRUE 1911 enthusiast when he field strips on a table top review.
He didn't quite do it correctly so...
@usualsuspect5173 I think that pin on the bushing wrench is for the hammer spring housing pin. I never heard of using a pin to push out the slide stop. That spring deal on reassembly was unique.
You didn’t loose anything with the shield plus. Good dialogue and good video
Thanks for watching I appreciate

I personally like the standard A1. No ambi safety and GI sites.
I like the GI model as well I just have a hard time seeing those little sights. Just wish they would put the sites from the service special on this gun. They're just a little bit taller
T Sauce in the house!
Mine has a nice tight fit, but easy enough to field strip without bushing wrench
Yes mine is the same way. Thanks for watching
Nice looking sidearm, thanks for sharing, have a great day
Thanks Bob I appreciate you watching.
Good looking gun Rob look forward to first shots.
Hopefully the first shots will be today. It's my last day off work before hell week starts again. Hope you had a great weekend
Looks like you got a good deal.👍
Yeah I think I come out pretty good I got all that stuff and $75 so I think I done pretty good.
That's a good looking gun. Have a great week. Hello from Arkansas.
Hey Mike I'm glad you watched the video. Hope you're doing well. Awesome to have a viewer from down in Arkansas. I've always wanted to visit there.
@@HamiltonOutdoors I live in the northeast corner. It's mostly flat farm land here. West Arkansas is really beautiful.
I agreed 100% but I couldn’t get rid of my love. Maybe pass it on the my child after I died.
Good trade Rob! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks for watching Tony I appreciate it Hope you had a great weekend
I got the same one in 9 mm love it with the same grips
Those grips actually came off of my 9 mm tank commander
@@HamiltonOutdoors I’d ordered a set from eBay should get them today
That's a good-looking gun very good trade.
Thanks Chuck I appreciate you watching Hope you had a great weekend
Did he say 10. Round magazine's
I think you made a nice trade. I am looking to pick up one sometime soon. Thanks for the video.
Yeah I think I come out on it pretty good.

Two 10 round magazines?
Three words. Take down procedure......
I was screaming at the screen
Three more words…….do some research!
Why not clean and lube it real quick while u have it apart? And my god man u need to learn the right way to take that thing apart
I have one of these, great pistol, hammer bite is my only complaint.
That's why the newer model the service special is better in my opinion it's got the commander hammer and thus less possibility of hammer bite
Good luck swapping out that front sight !
Mine had some kind of sear/hammer/safety issue and i had to send it back immediately
Hope they are a good company and take care of you. Because that's what really makes the company is their customer service. And how they take care of the product after you buy it
