SS or black Taurus PT 1911 .45acp

Prefer SS but either will do. Located in Pasadena but wouldn't mind going somewhere on a weekend

Don't do it... Unless Taurus has done a 180 in the past 10 years, every Taurus I've ever inspected is gritty, ill-fitted junk. I would take my chances on a RIA before a Taurus. You should just save up and buy a Sig 1911 when they go on sale. You can regularly find $1400 MSRP 1911s for $700-800 or so.

Even I know Taurus is a crappy gun. They just come across as cheap.

yeah thats how i found out about them, i really liked it, i ran into one at a local shop and been reading up on them ever since

I owned a PT1911 a while back. I never had any problems with it, sans a single failure to feed out of about 1300 rounds of WWB.

thats mostly what i would read, i read one post where a guys friend was firing one at a range and the ambi safety fell off, but nothing other than that

Likely was reinstalled wrong after taking it apart. I know I had my share of instances with most of the guns I owned, that I would install a part wrong, or forget one entirely because it rolled off the bench! Not the guns fault.

The PT1911s are great guns, and the three Taurus semi-auto pistols I own have been flawless.

Bud's even has the PT1911 (blued, no rail and Novak sights) for $399 delivered.

Taurus 1191101FS 1911 45 1MAG 8R Blued No Rail $399.00 SHIPS FREE

Had I not just bought a GSG 1911-22, or was saving my money for a Springfield Range Operator, I'd be picking one up! At that price it's tough to resist!

Glad you listened to those with actual Taurus experience and ownership rather than hearsay.

Hope you enjoy it.

Buy it. Shoot it. Enjoy.

Since I commented to the negative:
I own 2 Taurus pistols.
1 runs, 1 does not.
