    Scandium frame
    They are about $1200 new if I recall correctly
    That one looks a little short (4.25) barrel??

    I have heard the 4.25 is a little twitchy becuase of the light weight.

    I have the 5" and it shoots like a dream.
    I'd sell you mine for $850

      I have the 4.25" PD and I am very fond of it.

        ✟ In the beginning was the 1911, and the 1911 was THE pistol, and it was good. And behold the Lord said, "Thou shalt not muck with my disciple John's design for it is good and it workith. For John made the 1911, and lo all of his weapons, from the designs which I, the Lord, gave him upon the mountain."✟

              I didn't know they were up to that price level. I have the previous model, the 1911 Sc and I'd seriously think about selling mine for less than that...it has been flawless since I've had it

                You will have a VERY hard time convincing me to buy a 1911 with an external extractor.

                  I'm sure there are tons of thread on external extractor vs internal, I ran my 1911pd commander for about a year probably 5-7k no issues.

                      You would have a hard time getting me to care if you like External extractors or not.

                      I have both, never had an issue with either. That goes for the 70 vs 80 series debate as well.

                      If it gets favorable reviews and you like it, buy it.

                        And why would I care what you care about what I think???
