    I have the standard Govt.model. I put after market grips and a compensator on it. I love mine. Have had zero malfunctions. I used to on a coyote awhile back. Hit him with 3 outa 4 shots at 50 yards. My only complaint is that the fixed sights leave something to be desired. I would put aftermarket ones on if I were you. I had to cut my rear sight down by half to get it to hit point of aim.

    I haven't used one, but I understand they stand behind their pistols if they have a problem. You might want to check out the Charles Daly forum over at http://www.1911forum.com

    I had 1 and that was enough!after 200 rounds the rear sight flew off;after 400 rounds the front sight came off;after 450 rounds the hammer spring broke;after 4 trips back to virgina via UPS, it began to stove pipe like crazy. They did make it good by buying it back , but it was a POS, never again will I buy a cheap 45. As it goes " you get what ya pay for " ! I saved up and bought a para-ordinance and been happy ever since
