Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Dragracer_Art: Just picked up my first Tisas today... a 45acp Carry model. Looks like a pretty nice little gun. First 5 minutes of being home I swapped in the Hogue wraparound grip. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/7187/20230102_161910_jpg-2658553.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/7187/20230102_161902_jpg-2658554.JPG Very nice, I’ve got the same one coming from classic. I’m gonna put pachmayr signature grips on mine. |

Well, was out shooting my SS duty yesterday. Set it down to reload the mag only to realize, my grip had cracked! Guess I’ll be ordering some new ones for it!

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By mic214: I scored a 1911A1 Service Special off of GunBuyer.com. They were having an end of the year sale on this model, with a price of $309.99 + free shipping. I couldn’t pass up that deal! I don’t see this particular model on Tisas’ website. Mine has a Commander style ring hammer, larger sights than the standard 1911A1’s and the ejection port is relieved. Mine came in a nice hard case with two 8 round mags (Not marked). The finish is kind of a grey/green. The trigger pull is 5.85 lbs and pretty crisp. I can’t wait to get it to the range! https://i.postimg.cc/3rf7GtZJ/Tisas-1911-2.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/FRhW1xLy/Tisas-1911-3.jpg Got me on this one. Just ordered. |

 Attached FileDuty .45 I picked up from my ffl this afternoon. I was expecting a cardboard box and 1 mag. Plastic box and a 2nd mag was a nice surprise. Feels like a real solid piece, especially for the price. Going to strip it down for a good cleaning and new grips tonight. |

 Attached FileBought during the Classic sale in Dec. This is a ridiculously good gun for this price. Lots of "Ooo" and "Ahhh" at the LGS when I went in to pick it up, and disbelief when I mentioned the price. Interestingly, mine came in a cardboard box vice the plastic case shown above, but I could care less. That stuff usually ends up on a shelf somewhere, just taking up space. |

 I'm really liking some of the grip shown above!
