Today let's revisit the Smith & Wesson Performance Center bob tailed Commander chambered in .45acp. Link to original review: • Smith & Wesson Perform...
Thanks for sharing. Beautiful carry firearm! Like the Fusion grips and Fusion in general. I maybe a little bias though as I have one of their Reaction Government models and traditional Government lowers. Keep the content coming and God Bless!
Obviously a beautiful pistol. I always worry about dirt getting into the lightning cuts in a bad situation. Love the fish scale slide serrations. Not sure why we don't see more of that?
It's the only 1911 I own. Sadly, I couldn't get mine to reliably feed my JHP carry ammo (230 gr Win Ranger-T)...it runs lawlessly with ball ammo of course. At some point, may pick up a variety of JHP and try again.
I've been carrying mine for about 3 years. The only complaint I have is the grip safety metal. It rusts really easily. It's up against my body, and I sweat on it. If I don't oil it every few days, orange starts to appear on the edges.
Was wondering if you had to work on the Fusion Firearm grip for the ambidextrous safety and did you polish the finish off the barrel that shows when the barrel is locked up. I haven’t shot mine but finish is already wearing off from racking the slide a few times. Thanks
@@Icarryone Thank you , I think it looks better as well. I want to do mine like that but wait until I shoot them awhile. I ordered my grips yesterday and was able to request them to be cut for ambidextrous safety. I appreciate you getting back to me and absolutely love your videos.
Would you choose this over an M&P performance center 9? My buddy has one on offer. I LOVE your 10mm content. My fav caliber other than bolt action 7mm Ultra Magnum. Rifles. Cheers
I found one at Galco but nearly as regal as yours. Would you please share with us the company that sold yours? Maybe they sourced from some maker that still is in business. BTW, it got mine we and it’s every bit as beautiful and well made as you described, and while I was at it, I bought the new Springfield TRP coyote brown 4.25. She’s fabulous as well. Perhaps SA might send you one to review and you could compare. I’d like to know which is your favorite. Thanks
Great gun...pity here in Brazil the value is very high. To give you an idea, a Beretta here, stainless steel, standard, 9mm, costs 4 months of salary for a police detective. very difficult..I continue with my pt 100 plus..lol.. And to make matters worse, we have a socialist government now. Since January 1, 2023, the purchase and registration of weapons is prohibited by decree in Brazil. . Even for cops... God bless all good men. A fraternal hug and may God help us...
Smith and Wesson, way to ruin an other wise beautiful firearm by engraving an idiot label on the frame. If you need a constant warning that a pistol can fire without a magazine, you shouldn't have one.
This is now my primary EDC pistol. It is just an awesome 1911 ... I don't understand why Smith and Wesson didn't install night sights on it. I have Dawson Precision sights and I also changed my grips. Cheer's!
Absolutely gorgeous, one of the most beautiful 1911's I've seen in awhile!!
Thanks 👍
It's great to see a review of this lovely 1911 that's presented by an actual human being rather than a robot voice.
I want one !
👍😁
All of your guns are pretty. We have a lot in common, our guns should look good as well as work well.
Absolutely! 👍
What a beautiful piece.
It is indeed!
Glad to see you back 👍
Beautiful 1911 by the way 😎

Thanks William!
Amazing looking 1911

She sure is a beauty. Those fish scale serrations are something you don't see often
Agreed!
I need a 1911. I'm leaning towards a Springfield Armory but I like this too!
👍🤠
Can't go wrong with Springfield armory , be careful 1911s are extremely addictive
Beautiful gun good for setting
Shoots as good as it looks!
Great second look!
Thank you!!
Very Nice Sir.
Thank you!
Very nice side arm !!
Indeed!
Looks nice . Roll tide roll
Yeah buddy!

Those fish scale serrations are very grippy indeed. I'm sure they involve some pretty tricky machining that other 1911 makers don't wish to tackle.

Thankfully, I haven't had that happen.
i wouldn't mind a video about all double stack 10mm you have
That might be something I can do in the near future - thanks for the suggestion!

Yes, the right hand grip panel had to be modified. I did polish out the chamber hood - I personally think it looks better.

I like alot alot!!!!!
👍🤠
Wow is that sharp
👍🤠
I’m looking at a Rock Island full-size 45 the old-school model. What do you think?
Have one - like it a lot!
I ordered vintage grips for want to make it look like a World War II replica
Would you choose this over an M&P performance center 9?
My buddy has one on offer.
I LOVE your 10mm content. My fav caliber other than bolt action 7mm Ultra Magnum. Rifles.
Cheers
Over the M&P? Absolutely! Better snag it before your buddy sells it to someone else! 👍
@@Icarryone Done and done. Comes with extras. Mags etc. Will do. Thanks. Private sake. : )
I've been eying one of these for years. I'm doing some work overseas and how to get one when I get back
Excellent choice! 👍
I’m getting the gun and I’d like to also get that holster. Where did you get that beauty? Thanks for both review and holster show!
Unfortunately, the company that made these custom holsters recently went out of business.
Dang it! Well at least I can get the gun!
If you’d ever want to sell that beauty let me know!

Long time no see
I'm still here!
Nice I wish

They keep trying to impose restrictions in this country as well - so far, with very little success.

Annoying, isn't it? 👍

Cheer's!
I suppose you could order one with night sights - but I'm okay with the way it is.
@@Icarryone
I'm good with what I have... I can make the pistol light up at night if I need to.... 🤣
I hope you're doing good.
Call me old fashioned - but If I don't know what that "bump in the night" was, I simply turn on the friggin' lights. 😉
