I would jump on it. I usually go over to Gunbroker and see what people are paying for them, they are all in the $1300 range. The cheapest one is a used one for $999, so it looks like a pretty safe bet as well as a fine pistol.

Beware, though... 1911's are just like M1a's... quite addictive.

Trp 1911

Sounds like one heck of a deal. One that I could not pass up.

Thats what I thought

I was looking at an entry level Para GI Expert but I do not believe you can compare the 2 and at that price it is only $130 +- when you figure in tax on the Para. I just hope the guy emails or calls me back soon I would live to go pick it up today. it almost feels like waiting for Christmas. It was just listed yesterday and I emailed him right away. DI5

Sounds fishy.

That's dirt cheap, my friend. Is the seller hard up for cash, or is the weapon from persons,' parts unknown?

Do some investigating before parting with your hard-earned cash.

Every once in a while a great deal will present itself, and you have to be able to recognize that it is a great deal and jump on it!GI6You can always sell it later for more than you have in it, if you don't like it.

If you don't want it, let me know where it is!

That isn't a good deal, its a GREAT one. I guess my only fear would be that ol' saying.....if it seems too good to be true....Give her a good looking over.
