Unbiased Review
My first 1911a1 was issued to me. Since then I've owned half a dozen or so in various brands. All but one being military configuration. To be fair in testing, I selected three different brands of similar configuration, using hand-loaded 230 grain ball ammo. I ran 1,000 rounds through each, without cleaning or added lubrication during testing. Yes, I'd call that abusive. In any case, the results are as follows... A. Colt military 1911a1, 8 each, failure to properly feed. No other malfunctions noted. B. Springfield 1911a1, 2 each failure to feed. No other malfunctions noted. C. Tisas 1911a1, Absolutely flawless right out of the box! Prior to testing, each were properly cleaned & lubricated, exactly the same. I used all new brass, Hornady brand powder & projectiles with CCI primers. Everything was as close to the same as I could get it. Another thing to note. On each round that initially failed to feed properly, once chambered all fired successfully. The obvious winner here was the Tisas. While impressed with my initial inspection, I honestly didn't expect this outcome. I expected the Springfield to be #1, and a close match between the Colt & Tisas. Not predicting which would prevail. I'm not merely impressed, I'm astonished over the quality and performance of this weapon! Besides the initial abuse I subjected it to, it's got a hard life ahead as it's intended to be used for safety training for new / prospective gun owners. I expect it will continue to perform flawlessly. I doubt it will ever see hollow point bullets but after my initial testing and a proper cleaning, I ran a few magazines of Hornady Critical Defense ammo through it. Again, it proved 100% reliable. The military Colt doesn't like anything but ball ammo. The Springfield seems content with anything I feed it. I plan on buying another for personal use / everyday carry. My trusty Springfield is being retired to the safe for now. The only thing I wasn't thrilled about was the mil-spec plastic grips. I ordered a couple sets of the walnut, double diamond U.S. marked grips and while slightly darker than I prefer it now looks as good as it shoots. Bottom line, visit your local dealer & inspect one of these yourself. There is a very good chance you will go home with it. If so, there is an excellent chance you will be at least as impressed as I am. You won't be sorry.
