What is your opinion of these .45acp 1911's? I can buy a "Scout" for $350 OTD. Yea or Nay? Thanks.

My guess at that price, it is that it's some Turkish off brand? I would hold off, until you can find out more about it. If it is a authentic Armscor made in the P.I.? Sounds like a good deal. Turkish not so much.
Don't get wrong, nothing wrong with Turkish guns. But I have seen some no name, no rep Turkish made 1911's, floating around recently. That I really wondered about?
If is one of the newer guns, buy it [;)]
The exterior finish was nice, but the internals were a bit rough. The only real negative was the safety broke in half after it was disassembled for a Cerakote job. I had it replaced with a better quality one.
If the price is right you can't really go wrong with one. It's certainly not going to be as smooth or nicely finished as a high-end 1911, but it should get the job done.
And no problems with functioning or durability with these guns, in my personal experience.
