You bet...haven't we all ?
I wanted a 1911 but couldn't afford a real Colt , much less a custom job by one of the smiths who built reputations building 45's. Spotted a Star model PS in 45 acp that looked a whole lot like a Colt and was priced at $75.00.
That was one of the most accurate 45's I've ever shot. Would group better than a friends Colt Gold Cup and his Colt Commander , he couldn't stand that . And would feed any shape bullet, I even loaded some Keith style SWC's and they fed !
Alas... It was stolen in 1995 and I still miss it.
The 1911 I have now is an AMT Hardballer , haven't done a thing to it and it's an accurate shooter .
