PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING - IMPORTANT MESSAGE - PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING
Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

IMPORTANT: In Photo-threads, each post should contain at least one picture of your own. Quoting a previous post, does not make your post compliant with that requirement. Photo threads are NOT for chatting.

I bought one just over a week ago, have not had the chance to shoot it yet. Mine has a fiber optic front sight. The blue finish is very high polish compared to my CD and Rock Island. The only concern I have is the LPA rear sight blade seems loose. It came with two 8 round novak mags. The slide to frame fit is very nice with just a small amount of movement. Hope to be able to shoot it before the week is out.

Finally made it to the range with it yesterday, didn't have any time for bench rest. It seems that the extractor maybe to tight, had to push the back of the slide several times for it to go home. Used wolf 230 and armscor 230 ball ammo. My target was the dangerous 20 oz coke bottle at 25 yards. It was hard to miss with that pistol, I didn't do quite so well with the Rock Island, I think sights had a lot to do with it.

medallion tactical M1911-A1 .45 ACP




heres my baby...well for me its very satisfying kinda tight at first but as soon as you exceed 200 rnds its smooth as silk. havnt jammed since day one, well atleast 200 rnds of fmj....and the rest 1800 rnds or more reloads cuz theyre much cheaper...hope to try atleast 50 rnds of hollow point once i get the chance to fit it in the budget...or maybe i just got lucky...

like labuyo said it cost only arnd $280...well i guess its a different unit, cuz i got mine for arnd PHP 42,000 including paper work thats arnd $764.00...well if his right than i got ripped of majorly by my gun store....GRRRRRRR!!!!!(:

Hi all,

Newbie here. Got one from the last gun show at Megamall. It is the standard model. Have to wait 3-4 weeks though before I get my hands on it. Have any malfunctions or broken parts so far? What ammo did you use to break it in?
