This is very depressing!! STI is one of my favorite makers. Great guns. HOWEVER they have been diminishing there line of standard 1911's for the last 4-6 years so I just figured it was a matter of time.

I hope they will service and do parts still. Some of their stuff is kind of specialized.

Great guns, really a sad deal!

Focusing on their (very expensive) double stack 2011s, which is where their bread and butter is. That's really what they are known for.
