I have owned a few 1911s (Wilson, Ed Brown, Guncrafter, Mars Armament, Coonan 357, Para Ordnance, Kimber).
I never acquired a Wilson Supergrade, though.
What do you plan to do with it?
$5G is a lot for a pistol.
I spent money on reloading since I shoot a lot, except during the winter when light is low.
I’m more of a practical person, despite my Instagram posts, so I prefer something for EDC, home defense, IDPA or USPSA.
The Wilson, Ed Brown and Guncrafter are more than accurate enough. One has been blessed with Mammoth Ivory Grips.
But if you want case hardened material, engraving or some exotic material, to commemorate your achievement, I can understand that.
I was a medical student, US Navy Military Officer, and then active duty, so I didn’t get a chance to get an Achievement level gun. I don’t think I will even though I can swing it, easily. I spent more money getting something I waited too long for, Suppressors.
I have my own personal backyard range in addition to belonging to a club.
I am my own range officer and I shoot in the backyard suppressed, these days. I was shooting everything else before but I don’t want to perturb the neighborhood.
