...any first person opinions based on RECENT experiences?
I say that because my research so far shows a mix of opinions. I'm reticent to act or constrain action based on hearsay so I'm really most interested in hearing from CD owners.
Those that have had issues in the past tend to post the negatives, those who have purchased within the last year or two seem to be positive.
Since I'm considering a NEW CD, I'm more interested in 2002 or 2003 model year experiences...as well as service since their Lifetime Warranty is contingent on them doing the work with no meaningful customizations...or handloads...more legal-ease from their web site, etc., etc., etc.
I thought about a Springfield Mil-Spec, but I like the looks of the CD better and I've heard as many "horror stories" about Springfield service as I have about CD.
In the end, I'm looking to add a nice looking 1911 to the stable which will provide some enjoyment at the range. I don't want to break the bank. I'm not going to enter any competitions with it, and I have alternatives for more serious needs.
Thanks in advance,
