I'd trust him to make a 1911 like I'd trust Bill Wilson to rebuild my engine. It might work OK but I'll only pay a premium for expert work.

I like some of the other pistols he did, though if they are priced anything like that I will pass.
here is a few of them, looks like they start at $4300 according to his website. more pics |

I gotta admit, IF the materials sourcing didn't seem so shady, and IF I was extremely wealthy, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I mean, how more American can you get that a 1911 made partly out of the Statue of Liberty? I don't care who made it or if it even shoots well. That's insanely cool.
But no way I'd buy it absent those two "ifs". |

But claims 25% better than the big boys who do it as their sole living with crazy expensive/cutting edge testing equipment, is clown shoes. He sure tap danced on his dick on that, and it shouldnt be forgotten. He lied, got caught, and doubled down hoping to still sell his products soley on his name to uninformed rubes. That was bad. IIRC he claimed db levels lower than the action cycling.

IF I was trump I'd buy it. I'd have gold from Fort Knox melted down and engraved on the sides, pieces of the giant sequioa general Sherman made into grip panels. My grip screws made from the USS Arizona, my front sight from the liberty bell, rear sight from the Apollo 11 capsule, trigger from a SR-71, hammer from the empire state building. Use bald eagle blood in the forging process. Probably give the lucky person time travel powers with all that American awesomeness. Go kill Osama bin Laden riding a raptor.

So what you're saying is that all bikers are pieces of human shit. Or, that marriage vows don't mean shit. Or, someone is stupid because they trust another person to be ethical. ETA: BTW Jesse James is the epitome of a sub-human, opportunistic, piece of shit. His latest marriage is to the Billionaire creator of "Patron Tequila", daughter. She's worth an est 100 million. James doesn't marry, or love for sake of love, he marries for the sake of financial security. That's a flawed person IMHO. Quote HistoryQuoted:

A53 has a yield of 35ksi. That's worse than A36! It's not a material that CAN be forged, let alone forged into a working 1911 receiver. 
Either he's lying about the material source, or he's never fired a round out of it. |

I follow what he does, off and on. He's an interesting cat to me.
In recent years, he seems to have developed a new strategy of steadfastly refusing to "grow" his business, such that economies of scale kick in, allowing him to become insanely wealthy by selling his wares to the common man, at a price the common man could probably afford. He doesn't want to be the CEO of a big corporation. He's already done that (he once had several hundred employees across his various enterprises), and by all accounts, he hated it. He seems happy enough these days as a hired gun - somebody that gets to spend more time doing what he really loves to do (economics be damned), knowing full well that his customer base is now necessarily restricted to the precious few who have the disposable income to pay for any of it. And to the extent that these people, few in number, are willing to pay for it...he'll be fine. We (meaning normal middle to upper middle class dudes) are not his actual customer base. We just watch (and comment) from afar. Good work, if you can get it. More power to him. |

Oh my. Quite an exorbitant price but if someone will pay it then good for him. It really is a shame though that when you look at some of the other pictures of that gun that the checkering and the beavertail fit appear as though they were executed by a blind man in the very late stages of Parkinson's disease. Maybe J.J. doesn't realize that at best he's a gun hack and that he should have farmed out the work on that thing.

So many people in the gun community complain about it being an expensive semi-belt fed and the cost is way to high and no one would ever buy one... But it's not FOR or marketed to them, and the market it IS for snagged them up fast as hell. |

He is a truly stand up guy. Fred Durst was at the height of his popularity and tried to chrash the line for a West Coast Choppers bike. Jesse had his Secretary explain to Fred that Jesse doesn't build bikes for assholes. As the the Sandra Bullock thing. Meh, he moved on. She plays a sweetheart on tv.

I am not going to be jealous of someone with $85,000 to spend. Pretty cool conversation piece for someone wealthy. Reminds me of a guy I helped a buddy pick up a pool table from. Sussed us out, then showed us around his house. Ferrari in the garage, cool everything. Celebrity autographed pictures from charity golf events where he had to pay some pretty high coin to go there. MP5 with a full-auto group. He had spent ~$50,000 on the thing, and didn't shoot it. I had just met the guy. I left there thinking, "lucky guy." Not, "man I hate that guy..." The free market worked out for him. Good for him. The guy obviously had a significant amount of disposable income. The gun is a cool piece of history, and has a cool story. Liberals can worry about class warfare, and wealth jealousy. Good on whoever has the money to afford that gun. It is a work of art. |
