Bul is KILLING it in the last couple years. The value you get in this 1911 along with the new line of 2011s are unbelievable. I wish they could somehow get more guns here (no idea of the logistics in that, just wishing) but I think it’s very important for folks to support companies like Bul, and of course any company, who is pushing the envelope in terms of how affordable quality guns can be.

Great review again. I’m a huge fan of all the BUL products. Once I found these I’ve gone crazy, traded in my Springfield, S&W, RUGER etc. and now have 12 of the Classic 1911 and 6 of the EDC 1911’s. Plus a few SAS II through in. I have Government and Commanders. They are so easy to shoot and fit my hand perfect. Have a mix of Bull and Bushing Barrels, as well as different finish’s solid and two tone plus different G-10 colors. Different calibers 9, 45, 40 & 10.. They check ✅ so many features your looking for in a 1911 style pistol. The fit and finish is second to none. Trigger is fantastic. Like you I like all steel pistols. I can’t say enough great features of these guns. I would highly recommend these pistols for any level of shooter. It also helps to have have Gilbert Perez with GP Arms a half hour away in TN. Super great to deal with. Highly recommend. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review about a 10 ⭐️ pistol.

I live in Canada and the the a hole PM we have used an order in council to ban all handguns in Canada. The very next morning I was first in line at the store and they opened the door I bolted to the handgun section with 50 people behind me and said “that one and this one”. Walked away with a Bul Armory 1911 in 9mm and a small Ruger Wrangler. Buy the time I got to the cash register all the handguns were gone and the salesmen said “You did well”!! I got home and second guessing my decision I searched YT for info and I found out my purchase was indeed a good one!!! Thanks for your review it just solidified my thoughts on it!!!! The government is coming for you so vote strong and god bless!!!

Saw a BUL Commander in a store just before Christmas. Held it in my hand, dry-fired it, and that was it. Ran to the bank, got the cash and took it home. I added a Wilson Combat clip-on magwell and replaced the front sight with a fiber optic front sight I bought from the BUL website. The magwell took a little force to get into place. I'm not a gunsmith or even a metal worker, so there is probably a better way to do it, but I just brute-forced it into place with a wooden mallet. I used a Dremel tool to carve out the G10 grips a bit to fit the magwell hooks. The grip screws are T-10 Torx head. The sights are Novak cut and push out from right to left, like almost all 1911s.

I have come full circle. Started on revolvers in the 1970s. Moved to 1911s in the '80s-90s. Da/sa's (USP, Sig p226) were my thing in the 2000s. I was seduced by striker fired pistols for a little while. From the later 2010s to today I am back to all hammer fired guns and probably will be until I'm too crippled or demented to shoot.

I know it’s probably a different class of gun in most peoples eyes, but I bought an RIA Tactical back in 2013, for less than $600 OTD, and the only thing it’s missing from this gun, is being stainless. And front checkering, BUT, it does have a long scallop on the front strap with vertical lines in it to aid in gripping it. Maybe not as productive as front checkering, but it does work! Only thing I changed out on it, was I run CMC PowerMags of the 10rd variety. G10 grips, check. Ambi-safety, check. Non-spongey as well. Decent trigger, checked and weighed, consistently 4.2-4.5lb. Funnel’d magwell, check. 1-piece guide rod, check. No bull barrel, so it is a bushing version. I have THOUSANDS of rounds through that gun with NO problems, whatsoever. Just because it’s “cheap”, doesn’t mean it’s bad. Unless it’s a Hi-Point, then, just walk away and save up for something better. Haha

The MSRP on my RIA 1911A1 FS ULTRA TAC was $799, however I paid new $660 It came with G10 grips, front & back stippling, fiber optic sights, full length guide rod, no paperclip needed & According to Martin T. The CEO no break in period necessary out of the box. Seems like the BUL is loaded with BUL Versus the ROCK solid reliability of ARMSCOR. The BUL Cherokee is almost an exact copy of my SAR B6C 9mm. From Turkey, However I wish I owned a few IWI pistols from Israel, like the MASSADA or JERICHO. All top quality.

FWIW: I puechased both the Government in 45 ACP and the Commander in 9mm (both BUL Armory). The Commander had a very crisp safety the Government was mushy. I contacted BUL and they authorized a return for warranty work. That gave me a nice crisp safety. The Government trigger was very crisp and was right around 3# +/- a couple of ounces (30 consecutive pulls with a Wheeler pull gauge). The Commander was right at 2.5# trigger pull, again 30 consecutive pulls average with the same pull gauge. My only issue was the blackout Novak style sights. At 77 they did not work too well for me (still shot great). The change out to a fiber optic front sight from BUL did the trick. Out and out the best 1911 I have purchased especially for the price point. The Israelis have done it again with these guns.

It's a much higher quality gun than any of the other 1911's I have owned with the exception of an STI I had years ago. To me, this is the gold standard for any 1911 until you reach the "boutique" market and then you just over pay for the name.

I first saw these pistols at a gunshow a couple of months ago for the prices you mentioned and picked it up to, well, fondle it and was impressed. As a guy who has only Colt M1911A1's because of fortuitous timing, I have to say I was very impressed with the Bul line. Sadly, I'm faced with a mountain of medical bills at the moment and even that modest price is out of my range but hopefully soon I'll add one or three to my Harem of .45ACP pistols just because. I've been carrying liliputian sized 9mm for my EDC as of late but I still miss not having a solid .45ACP on my hip, megarounds in the mag be damned. There's just something about having an M1911A1 at hand when the SHTF that inspires confidence. WYKYK, am I right? Great review, BTW, so thanks for that and I look forward to many more with all your new and improved bitchin' cameras. Overnout.

This gun is fantastic for the money. $900 with the DE 1911 and the knife. Its just cool. I shoot it better than all the polymer guns I have and a CZ75b , the only gun that comes close is my Walther PDP, which for some reason a laser beam for me. Just the fit and finish alone at this price point, the front and backstrap checkering, skeletonized trigger and clipped skeletonized hammer and light crisp trigger ate unlike any "entry level" 1911 I have seen. Its an unbeatable value and the level if iptions and smooth action, hand fitted I have heard, aee not seen om any other 1911's near the price point. I almost bought a Dan Wesson last spring for $1,800, but opted for a $900 IWI Desert Eagle 1911c was a lot cheaper and for all practical intents for my needs was just as good. That's how much I like these guns. Beats my 1911 R1 hands down. I have had the 5" G model for two years. Not a single jam. Not one. Thats unique in my 1911 experience. Out of the box, it is a very smooth tight action unlike the Ruger SR 1911 which is sloppier. The Remington has the better action then the Ruger. The trigger on the Remington is not nearly as good, but not bad. This is the most accurate gun I own and I shoot it as well as my friend's Shadow 2, which says a lot. To my surprise, I do very well with blacked out sights that came spot on. I have to have night sights. With this I would use it defensively because it is that reliable and I shoot it so well. The c model is the same. These guns are impressive and hidden gems. They are a joy to shoot. They pretty much create a very desirable class just above entry level that no other brand occupies, an excellent 1911 for the working class guy. That was smart and good on you, Bul. I like the classics and this one is a beaut. Just like the "desk pop", "Don't think. Just go." And sadly being Gen X growing up shooting three dot sights, I do very well with them. I consider it a handicap. But its been that all my shooting life and I have tried but weirdly I don't shoot pistol red dots nearly as well yet. I've tried.

I like stainless steel. Bull Armory seems to be a little more innovative than its competitors by offering great starter guns at all the price points.

Just looked up the price of these here in Australia $1800us, (2600 Australian)possibly cheaper if you can find one, thats probably the RRP recommended retail price. Glocks start around $700us (1000 Australian)

Have several 1911 oldest being a Colt with 4 digit serial number newest is my Baer definitely not a budget gun but now all my others just sit in the safe because once you have it "fired in" like the shop owner said if you miss your aim point it's you not the Baer. Please bring me more large primers Santa.

I’m very interested in all the Bul Armory pistols, the challenge continues to be accessibility! When you do find them the price is $200-$500 more than MSRP

go to Bul Armory's website and buy direct - you'll get MSRP every time. if it's out of stock - sign up for alerts - they get new shipments pretty regularly.

I don’t think they offer the government line in a bushing barrel. I looked everywhere and couldn’t find it. I ended up with a Springfield ronin unfortunately for that reason as I want to shoot uspsa single stack with it.

You sure it wasn’t the more expensive trophy? If so I need to know where he got it. I called the Bul distributor direct since they’re close to where I live and they said they don’t have them.
