Guncrafter Industries 1911's

Anyone on INGO own one? Thinking of making one my next purchase.

No, but like you, I sure have thought about it. Right now I'm kinda jonesing for a Commander in 9x23 though, so probably Jim Garthwaite is going to see the next disposable income I'm able to accumulate unless I can talk SOMEONE out of a Combat Commander in 9mm or 38 Super.

Those Guncrafter pistols are gorgeous! Going for their namesake cartridge?

Just the normal Commander .45, though the GI .50 is tempting. . This one.

9x23 is a badass cartridge. 10+1 of 357 Mag power (124/125gr JHP@1450fps), in a 1911 with a nice single action trigger? Yes please!

I did a lot of research and look at the big names of the high end 1911's because I wanted a 9mm version, GC was my final choice as I think you get a lot of gun for your money and will last forever if you take care of it. I did not get mine as something came up and will remain something I will get some day but not any time soon.

Seems as though everyone that does have one gives them great reviews. Suppose to every bit as good as Wilson but a cheaper price.

They're right down the road from Wilson, and word is most of their staff were former Wilson guys. Not unlike Nighthawk.

Correct, the guy that did the G.I. 50 went back to Wilson. AR now has three great gun makers.

Guncrafter makes as good a pistol as Wilson, Baer, and Nighthawk. Plus, the fact that they're in a league by themselves with them being .50 is that much sweeter. If you're willing to pay that much for a pistol, you won't be disappointed!
Sorry for the poor picture quality .....
