I have owned 4 1911's, the first being a AMT. I don't really count this one in my poll response because it was so bad. The store I bought it from was owned by a retired Marine armorer and he could not get it to work, took it back to the factory in Arcadia in person twice and they made it better but never so i could trust it. Not once did it feed and fire a full mag without a stovepipe or misfeed. I traded it for a 8mm camcorder that I never used and eventually gave to my sister in law and I still consider that I received the better part of the deal.
Two SA that worked flawlessly and my current Colt which has worked perfectly once I put 200 rounds through her.
