I have been carrying a Colt 1911 for more than 30 years along the AZ/Mex Border and this weapon has saved my bacon more times than I can count, to include 10 years as a SWAT operator, this weapon is still with me today along the Border. I have a couple of other 1911 to include an old series 70 satin nickel Combat Commander, and a Springfield Ultra compact, and one little baby 1911 in a Colt 380 Mustang, I love my old Colts and love to shoot them, my agency still has numerous Colt 1911s in use to this day. God bless John Moses Browning...God bless America.. Tony Parrish... Cochise County AZ

WOW IM SERIOUSLY IMPRESSED BY SCOTTS COLLECTION he is so very passionate about the 1911s and I wish there were more people like him ! He has his priorities right and I admire him for being so in depth on the history information and stories behind every each piece of his collection! So refreshing to see a master collector doing the true dillagence of perfecting the classic art of firearms collecting especially when it's on my one of favorite pieces of history the 1911 , I aspire to one day be like him ,thank you Scott for sharing your collection is amazing and you sir are a true master of your hobby!

He seems miserable. Never satisfied , always looking to satiate his dissatisfaction, thinking the cause of his dissatisfaction is outer. But the cause is inner confusion, looking outward , he will never be content , never be happy . This is all ego based, self centered , and not for the benefit of others . He’s not selling them to help kids with cancer. “ any action that has as it basis dissatisfaction, only results in further dissatisfaction.” I wish he finds the path to true contentment , free from attachment . These are cool , but this seems out of balance.

Had a Ithaca I inherited from my grandpa. Unfortunately sold it to a gun shop in Fayetteville N.C. , when I was stationed at Ft.bragg in the early 90s. It was a great shooter. We have a colt and a Springfield armory 1911, but we still have the original holster for the old Ithaca. I still have the receipt for the old gun with the sn, I'm curious what ever happened to it, if it's in a collection, or somebody's bed side gun, or just a shooter.

I inherited a Remington 1911 early SN in the low 8000s. I wish it had been looked after by men like him. I had no idea what it was worth but a gunsmith made me an offer. I declined as sentimental value as my Grandfathers carry piece outweighed the offer. I always think of the age of this gun as being about the same as my grandfather. Love the inspector marks and the Remington UMC meatball.
