Built on Valentine’s Day? What a sweetheart gun..

I heard from my military bud at work that the Govt was about to dump a ton of old 1911s on the market. Wonder if they’ll be as cool as the M1 my pop got from the CMP.

I do not disbelieve in anything. I start from the premise that everything is true until proved false. Everything is possible.

Yep, it's been a "hurry up and wait" deal for a while now. They will be offered through the CMP as well.

More info and email updates here.

My thoughts too. I find for accuracy, my 9mm, worked a lot better with a heavy projectile and less speed. You could even try some of the 147 grain jacketed hollow point ammo.
