This is like my mental picture of what a 1911 should look like. Thank you, late 70s American Handgunner.
The price is blowing me away. What’s the catch?

Hit or miss reliability with JHPs, it seems. That's what I gather from skimming various forums, at least.

Any idea what clips they're using for the JHPs and then what JHPs?
I wonder how an EGW higher mag catch would help.

I can't recall, honestly. It's just a general trend I see noted in threads, and I'm not sure how accurate it is to begin with. Could just be people applying Armscor rules-of-thumbs to TISAS guns because they want to make a correlation for some reason.
It'd be cool if the forum members that have TISAS guns would do a little more data mining.

It looks like we have several members with JSOCs. How are they working out?I can't recall, honestly.

@MountainRaven? @SoCalDep? @Gary1911A1?
Not enabling or anything, but Family Firearms has them for $647 shipped OTD, no tax.

Not sure what the grand total would be but Battlehawk has them for $615. So tempted

$647 isn't a bad price if it will run ball ammo reliably. Nobody is going to carry a 1911 anyway. The ambidextrous safety isn't retro at all but it looks like they just want to sell pistols to lefty shooters who want to experience a 1911. There has to be plenty of those out there, maybe 10%.
I applaud the manufacturers that build 1911 shooters for the unwashed masses. I would have been a buyer 20 years ago if they existed. I had to buy several Colt's to get a 1911 fix. No options for a new $750 1911.

In the P-F basket of deplorables.
It’s inspired by ‘80s and ‘90s SFOD-D guns, many of which seem to have worn ambi safeties (see the photos I posted earlier). It’s not just about left handed people; it’s about being able to use either hand.
It’s a 1911.
Mine works great and has been 100% reliable with 230gr HST and 230gr ball from a bunch of different mags. Yours might not… because it’s a 1911.
But hey… it’s a 1911 so we kinda know how to figure things out on ‘em… so if yours doesn’t work great it can be fixed with patience, time, skill, and money. Many are too impatient for that and should stick with simple good Glocks, M&Ps, and so forth.
