    Shouldn't this be the 101th Anny Special
    I actually prefer the original run. The 'fish scale" slide serrations look weird...
    What are the advantages of the E series?

Machined to exacting tolerances, the SW1911 "E" Series features a precision fit trigger, chamfered and recessed muzzle, "fish scale" scalloped slide serrations and a host of premium features commonly found on custom-made firearms. Available with a traditional stainless steel or patented scandium - alloy frame, the SW1911 "E" Series is built to excel in any environment. "

    I'm in for one.

    It will be my first 1911, and personally, I intend to bring it on the shooting range occasionally. Unless somebody convince my not to do it... but to buy a Norinco.
