Okay, I am happy with my Dan Wesson and my Smith 1911s, both fullsize.
But, my dealer has 3 Commanders for sale. I want one for carry.
The 70 Series is a LW Commander with plenty of use behind it, no doubt. Blue has some wear that looks like holster wear. It's sporting a bobtail that looks reblued/refinished. One Springfield mag. $599
The second is an 80 Series Commander (not LW). Less wear and age, no bobtail. Three dot sites...3 mags and original box $495 We have an idiot mark on it. Oh, well.
Third up is a used Series 80 alloy LW Commander, one mag $625. This one is either never fired or minimally fired.
I'm so afraid of getting a used Colt 1911...but it's ma' birfday!
Any good advice on which to consider over the others...too many factors? HELP!!!!!!
Thanks.
