Well, I for one am glad I'm not stuck with a spur hammer and GI sights. What do you say?
For the record, I say unless it's built exactly the way JMB designed it,regardless of who manufactures it today, it's a deviation and theoretically could be called a knock off or not a true 1911A1. Right? |

Hammers and sights don't change the basic design - "Cosmetic changes". The internals of most 1911s are close enough to JMB's original design to satisfy my purist desires.
Browning's 1911-380, however, uses a linkless design. Now that changes it to a 1911'ish pistol instead of a true 1911. Kinda ironic that Browning's own "1911" isn't.

Don't get me wrong. I'd love to have an vintage Colt or Singer 1911 for nostalgic sake. To me, it'd be like owning a 1970 Dodge Challenger vs one from today. |
