    I bought a Wilson Combat!

    Alquist Arms in Turlock has $2650 of my hard earned money and in ten days I'll take possession of my Wilson Combat 45 ACP. It feels good to spend my money on an absolute top of the line item like that. What lightened my wallet was the WCQB-ALCA #1000 5". Its all black and soon after it comes home will sport a set of CT laser grips. Its a shame those grips will cover up that nice checkering on the front of the grip but these 65 year old eyes need the help in low light. I'm a happy camper, Merry Christmast to me!!

    Range report please after your Wilson CQB is released from it's 10 day purgatory!?

            seriously... i really want to get a top of the line 1911 as well. either a wilson or a nighthawk. and then a mid-line one as well (really want a full dust cover trp operator).
            i got the low end covered with my RIA tactical (my first and only 1911)...

            to the OP: pics once you get it along with a range report please.

              I recently got a TRP operator, with the half dust cover. I wanted a brand new one. But the Wisons have been on my mind ever since I took possesion of the trp.

                Congrats and enjoy. Some people call it hobby. But in your case it sounds like a passion. More power to you!

                          I've had the same one for almost half a year now and it is simply outstanding! The latest generation laser grips don't cover up all of the checkering. You'll need a surefire to keep that rail busy.

                          PS: Congrats on the Wilson, you're going to love it!

                            I've already ordered a catalogue so I can oogle the whole line when I'm not at my computer!!

                              Was just in Alquist Arms yesterday and fondled their Ed Brown Kobra Carry. WOOF!!!!!

                              They've got a great selection in there right now, and great prices.
