low price .45's

[B00MSTICK]

start off by saying hi to all you INGO users, just joined today. I'm looking to getting back into shooting. I've had a few different firearms over the years and am just recently in a position to start scratching the itch i'm getting on my trigger finger. I just came across a tisas .45 1911 model that I'm thinking of picking up and am wondering if anyone has any hands on experience with this manufacturer? I know a lot of people will bash it for being a cheap gun, but I don't want to throw a lot of money at something I'm only going to be taking to the range once every couple of months.

Welcome to INGO. I am not familiar with the brand. I know that the 1911's made in the Phillipines are good bang for the buck...

To get a real INGO welcome be sure and head over to the political forum and say you thought Bush was a pretty good president or that Libertarians waste their votes.
Nice Avatar and welcome aboard.

The Tisas .45Acp 1911 is made in Turkey. The shotguns now coming out of Turkey are too numerous to count. Most of them are good to excellent quality. The Tisas should be a good pistol to get you started back in the world of firearms, without breaking the bank.

If that model doesn't work out for you check out the Rock Islands, Made in the Philippines, Customer service is in Nevada, I have 2 and love them. You can generally get them for $500 or less.

Bush? Obama is the best president of all time!

What is your budget? I'd suggest you save a little more and buy a decent quality pistol.

not as much as I'd like, but then it never is...

I understand that..we all go through it. It still helps to know what it is.

Look into a hi point in .45. There's actually one for sale here for $300 that comes with a holster and other cool stuff. You could probably get the gun for $200 though. those hi points sell pretty cheap. I have one in 9mm and it shoots fine no problems.

+1 for Ruger. I have an SR45 that I picked up for $400. For me it is a better shooter than my RIA 1911. Not one issue since buying in Feb and after 700-800 rds. To me the recoil on the SR45 is no greater than my 92FS 9mm.

On a budget one thing to consider is the price of ammo. 45 is going to be more expensive to shoot. Truthfully I can find 40 right now as reasonable as anything. 9mm is traditionally the go to for less expensive shooting.

 

[B00MSTICK]

looking to drop around $600 get a couple of boxes of ammo and some spare mags in the deal also. Pretty much have my heart set on a 1911 style

 

[Racechase1]

RIA,American Classic also. There are also deals for Remington's if you shop around a little bit.

 

[Redhorse]

Yupp look on armslist

 

[VERT]

RIA is a solid choice in that price range. Maybe a Taurus?

Either could be had in 9mm or 45 acp.

I have read some very good reviews of the Tisas. If that's what you have your eye on then go for it. People will always tell you to save more to get the gun THEY want.

+1 Very well said!

With your budget, a used Springfield Armory 1911 would be a great choice. Doesn't matter how many owners were before you, they carry lifetime warranty and customer service. Their custom shop has done some awesome work for me as well. Several platforms of 1911's also.
