Here's my 1911- Sig GSR...paid about $750 two years ago.
I LOVE this gun.

That's why I posted the stainless GSR Revolution. My buddy has one just like that with some custom grips. He loves it more that his wife or his kids. ;D

He let me borrow it for a few weeks. It was great. I would buy one in a heartbeat. Great 1911. Sig quality and a good price. What more could a fella ask for?

I just got a ss Dan Wesson heritage 1911 .45, and i'm really happy with it. Also I have a Para p-14 .45 and it's nice too- but the mags are really expensive.

I'm partial to Para. I have 5 Para's, 1 Kimber. Most 1911's manufactured today should be no problem. I prefer Para because of capacity. When I started shooting, Para was the only manufacturer with wide bodied frames. There are also so many different choices of Para that you should be able to find something to suit your needs.

Sounds like the Paras are getting the nod. I don't know about bucktracker, but my next 1911 is going to be a Para.

Let's see; M25operator has 3 Paras, JumboFrank has 3 Paras, twyacht speaks highly of Paras (in the same sentence as Les Baer), Pathfinder has and loves a Para, bbbean recomends Para GI, ellis4538 has 2 Paras and shoots USPSA with them and last but certainly not least MB speaks highly of and has worked on design with.......Para.

I'm almost ready to let a Les Baer go cheap. Well maybe there is room for old Les and a new Para. Shhhhh. Please don't wake or tell my wife. She is still under the delusion that I have enough guns.

Seriously, if anyone is interested in a Les Baer 1911 in 40 S&W with an extended mag 18 +1, PM me. The Les 45 will stay at home for a while, but I could part with the Les Baer 40 S&W. It was bought as a prototype before the 40s were made into production models.

There's an article on this gun in the new American Rifleman. It says they bought the frames from Caspian. Looks like a nice gun.

You are 100% correct Peg, see M25s post on page 2. He has the identical lower (Caspian frame) on a very sweet homemade 1911, 9mm.

The Caspian is a wide frame 1911. It accepts double stack mags.

I'm sorry that I missed the article. I get America's First Freedom from the NRA.
