    Sam 1911

    Went looking for an inexpensive 1911 to learn more about the platform and to customize for fun. Ran across this S.A.M. Elite at a LGS. Listed at $325, I offered $300 and it was accepted (consignment gun). Gun is used and not abused, does need a new slide stop. Came with the original 8 round mag and a Colt 7 rounder. Took it to the range today for a quick shakedown (it was 18 degrees out) and function check. Ran perfect for the 50 rounds I shot, slide would lock back with the original mag, but not the colt or a Chip Mccormick that I had. New slide lock should fix. I ordered a Wolff spring pack for the gun too.

    That's a good find. Shooters Arms Manufacturing (S.A.M.) is the second oldest firearms manufacturer in the Philippines, and they've actually been around for a good, long while. I think you'll find that you got a bargain.
