That's sweet. Is that the LBO model? I'm liking the RO Elite Operator.

It's the lightweight operator. It's been terrific!

I held a Colt M45a1 today. Very nice. Might be able to stomach the price too.

The M45A1 is an awesome pistol. It is noticeably heavier than a standard 1911 and requires a different holster.

It did feel heavy, since you mentioned it. The lady at Continental said as much. It wasn't oddly placed or unbalanced though.

I'd like to post a photo of my Kimber, but that POS blew up in my hand after about 750 rounds. Kimber said it was cracked in the slide and frame, so its toast. Offered me a new one at cost. Said no thanks.

What's up with the lower part of the frame in front of the magazine?

And that's the best they could do? I'm with you and I'll never buy a Kimber because of that.

How old is this pistol? Most folks are not getting the slide cut for a holo sight system now. Much less reciprocating mass.

What do you mean?

somd_mustangs · Jul 20, 2018

He probably means the "undercut" at front lower frame by the mag baseplate.
Hopefully you realize the pistol has been heavily buffed, edges "rounded" & refinished?

hairba111 · Jul 20, 2018

This M1911 is of the same era. Original finish, no buffing no cuts.

I haven't seen it in person yet. Do you guys think it's worth $900?

Wait, what? One of their pistols blew up in your hand and they didn't replace it under warranty? Seems like a liability issue to me, unless it blew up with something other than factory ammo.
