The Savage 1911: U.S. Military 1911 With a Savage Treatment

[Annihilator]

According to Guns.com the....

1) SA Operator is $62 cheaper, but less features,

2) SA Emissary is $7 more expensive, with less features & not as good looking as the Savage black non-railed 1911.

BUT, if you want a rail (not a must have feature in my book) then the Savage black railed version is...

3) $190 more than the railed Operator, but still with more desirable features in my book, and...

4) $120 more than the Emissary, but still with more desirable features and much better looking in my book.

This Sig 1911 has almost the same features as the Savage, but has milled internals, no MIM, plus lifetime warranty and was around $999.00 when I got it about 2 years ago, not a fan of a rail on a 1911, but I wanted a Sig 1911, so I gave in

Nice!

New or used?

The Savage 1911 also has no MIM, and uses parts from Novak, EGW & Greider Precision. Limited lifetime warranty.

Gun.com wants $1,221.99 for that model & GB has it for $1,199.99. = inflation.

Personally, I would want to stick with an internal ejector.

I'll stick with the Springfield Armory (or TISAS) 1911s that are just as good (or better), and cost less........

Oh, or Rock Island........

My M1911A1 with a 1945 build date is one of the best shooters I own. Although its old its tight and right...
