RE: 1911 handgun
mb77 - don't rely on J's post. He may have been relating to the earlier Taurus.
The newer manufactures are well made. My PT1911 will shoot along side any Kimber, Colt, Les Baer, etc.
This pistol is accurate and I have yet to have it malfunction in any way shape or form. The only thing this pistol could be improved on is the finish.
