This is true. You might be able to find a used one for $1000-$1300, though. You'll get what you paid for.But if you want to spend $1500, then a Dan Wesson might be a good choice.
There are really a lot of interesting and informed opinions here! But I don't understand how someone posting on a gun forum can refer to a Glock as "DAO." If you don't grasp that a Glock is already 95% cocked when a round is chambered, then you simply don't get what DAO means.
I know what your saying.
But Striker Fired Pistols are on the DOA class because the trigger is still cocking and firing the pistol.
Even if it is 5% it still counts.
Both my Kimbers started at about $1500 and then I added accessories like the CT laser on one so it's up around $2000 now and it's my EDC.I think Kimber ceased manufacturing 1911s with the external extractor in about 2007. You don't see many of them for sale on Gunbroker .com.
But for my preferences on a 1911 (incl. front strap stippling and a good trigger break), I haven't seen a $950 1911 that I like, except for Kimber. But if you want to spend $1500, then a Dan Wesson might be a good choice.
