why yes... yes i did like 30minutes after you posted this :)it was nice, very nice i think i might have to go get one soon. it had a recoil spring mod..he called it something else but i might try to do that with my taurus...

here is a pic of my .45 and my GF's .380

The recoil spring on these 1911's are changed out to increase feeding reliability and to reduce wear on the gun. Your Taurus may not need it. :)

Glad you liked shooting the 1911.

While the Springfield 1911 Government model is my next buy, I can safely say that, so far, the best handgun I have ever owned is the H&K USP 45. I also had a Glock 23, which was very reliable, but the German made guns just catch my fancy (I also had a G3, which was very nice).

I've always wanted to try one of those HK's! Digging the dueling pistols too, lol. I had a CETME (the forerunner to the G3) that I liked very much.

Just brought the 1911 in to a well known local gunsmith for a nice set of Novak tritium lo profile 3 dot night sights, a combat safety and ramp polishing. :hello1: He asked if I wanted any trigger work and I said no, feels pretty good for a carry gun. He cocked it, let it loose and agreed. Looking forward to getting it back and running another 250 rounds through it. :)
