Nothing wrong with the .380 these days, I carry a Beretta Pico in .380 and use Sig V-Crown ammo, hell after my surgery I had to pocket carry a .25 auto, to me caliber doesn’t matter, shot placement and reliability is what matters. I can’t speak for Tisas, while I have shot and handled one, they seem very good pistols for the price, plus there forged and now don’t use MIM parts…

The only one on my list would be a variant of the P365, the XL. I find nothing particularly offensive in the rest, but my list currently is very short. And none of them are on it. I simply have no experience with any of them save rhe P65Xl and the Hellcat, and I chose the P365Xl over it and still would.
And I agree Ani, nothing wrong with the .380 it's carried more than anything else I have most of the summer.

Had a stainless Tisas 1911 for a hot minute….buddy of mine saw it and offered me a little more than I paid for it, so I couldn’t say no to him.
By all appearances it was as well built as any of the other, higher-end 1911s not from the Philippines. I picked up up for two reasons: 1.) it was “on sale,” and 2.) you just can’t have too many basic, working 1911s.
I’d happily buy one again if the price were right. Can’t readily say that about other foreign-built 1911s.

Here’s the thing.
If I had a budget of $700, I’d buy a surplus Glock or M&P for $3-350, and a case of ammo.
I wouldn’t consider ANYTHING on that list.
Heck, I saw surplus Sig P229’s for $349 recently—given, they were .40 and DAK, but, still…I’d rather have that than a Taurus or a Ruger copy of a Glock.

Nice. What grips are they?

Nice! I too, think the Echelon should have been on the list. The more I shoot it, the more I like it.

Hi,
If nothing else, I like reading articles like this just to learn about guns that may not be on my radar. I'm always happy to listen to those with more experience than I, even if I'm not drawn to the same firearms as the author.
Thank you for your indulgence,
