Dayum I hate looking in this thread it upsets me to know I will never get the chance to own my favourite ever handgun short of winning the lottery and moving to the states 🙁
You guys have some awesome 1911’s please remember how lucky you are to still be able to own firearms.P.S anyone want to adopt me? :p

Yep, ambi safety. To be honest, I’m not sure if I like the ambidextrous safety or not.
I’m not a fan of an extended ambi. I found that the extended right side would disengage when I bumped or brushed up against anything.I did want the option of off-hand use though, so what I ended up doing was taking the right side lever and chopping and grinding it down to more of a GI safety profile. It still has an extended lever for strong-side use, and a usable -but not prominent- weak-side safety.

Ummm?
That was my thought not quite a 1911The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,

Maybe on the single-stack thread…Let me reel the thread back in. This is a .22 lr I build for training. I basically set it up like the .45 ACP I was shooting in competition for running through drills and etc.. It made up largely of parts i accumulated from various shooting matches. I went across town to Nowlin and bought the frame. The top end is a Ciener with the Douglas barrel.

How are you liking the Remington? I’ve seen them in a few of the LGS around here but haven’t talked to anyone who has one or has any range time with one. TIA!

I probably have close to a thousand rounds through it now and have never had a problem. I handload and I’ve shot just about every type of bullet weight and nose profile there is and this gun handles them all flawlessly. I’ve owned lots of 1911s over the years but when this one came out I just had to have it.44Magpie said: ↑

Sweet! Thanks for the info.
What other popular 1911’s can you compare it to (pro/con)? I’m (always) in the market for a 1911 but have to be very budget conscious… My love is the Colt Gov’t model but I won’t be getting one of those any time soon.Just wanna add a +1 to the Remington 1911’s. I’ve had my Remington 1911 R1 Enhanced for a few months now. Ran about 1200’ish rounds through it, with perhaps 2-3 FTE’s during the first 100 rounds. (Those were some shady reloads though, should have cleaned the casings properly)
Loving it to bits, even though my CZ outperforms her (In my hands!).
