Damn, that is a good price.

good price but two tone I can not handle on a 1911. Just not my thing...now I would have it hard hatted or something though......


If you look around a lot of the prices are really cheap right now there. Colts are super well priced as well, must have some inventory to get rid of OR with the new prez there is not guns being sold on fear of loosing them any longer.

Been thinking about adding a Colt to the family, just because.

... nor is it mine, but, to each their own.
I am a big fan of DW's 'Duty Treat' though.

I like Bud's Gunshop, especially the one in Sevierville TN. The brick and mortar store is different than the online store... just so you know. Pricing and availability will also be different.

The price on the Heritage is great. The problem I've had with the online group is that when I've called on a great price gun, they don't ever seem to have them in stock. Second thing to look for is "Is this gun a blemish model." If it is, Dan Wesson stamps an upside down Y in the serial number. I wish they wouldn't sell blems... but they do. Would the gun be functional? Absolutely. In many cases you won't even find a blem on the gun, but it is there. Maybe 20 point checkering instead of 25, or a slight ghosting on the slide... but.... maybe not.

Just my two cents for those who might not know DW's or Buds Gunshop too well.

That was my first thought as well.
