Magnum Research 1911?

[Dustin]

A friend in Washington state told me that Magnum Research is now making a 1911... anyone else heard this?

 

[Black-Jacket]

yes, seen the add in the new issue of combat handgunner

 

[Jeff/1911]

Cool!!!!

 

[timoram]

This one?

 

[--Terry--]

Just looks like another Taurus 1911 to me. Or a Double Star. Or whoever the manufacturer is.

So this market is still not too crowded, eh?

 

[Dustin]

That'd be the one... and with that arrogance in advertising, I already hope it fails!

 

[vhenem]

Kinda looks like an older Charles Daly......

 

[Lfsabch]

oooo smexy

 

[Ko_Sine]

You'd think they would put it out in 10mm, or something more powerfull than 45acp.

 

[Captain Paul]

That'd be the one... and with that arrogance in advertising, I already hope it fails!

Sadly, I feel the same way!

 

[eigenvector]

Oh my goodness! Extended safety and skeletonized hammer! How revolutionary!

 

[R1-Dave]

Big deal, it's a 1911 with "Desert Eagle" on the slide.

 

[Jeff/1911]

That'd be the one... and with that arrogance in advertising, I already hope it fails!

That pisses me off, too. Woo-hoo, Desert Eagle.

 

[gcarms]

Earn the name,,,,,,,, wtf,,,,

Just one more drop in an already overflowing pot.

Its just an attempt at a Hollywood Icon riding the coat tails of an already proven and established firearm platform..... If they came out with a .50AE 1911, maybe then they could call it an Eagle..... as for a .45, whatever.

Whats next, a Glock revolver??????

 

[carlchevalier]

or a glock 1911.... a plastic 1911..oups STI make those already.

sti makes no plastic 1911?
they make 2011 with plastic grips but nothing plastic

 

[evan the cdn]

It'll never sell. There's barely any gold on it!

 

[DANCESWITHEMPTIES]

John Browning must be laughing in his grave... That indeed is some pretty smug advertising. Maybe they will come out with a gold plated 1911? Want to bet the name alone jacks it by at least $200 from the rest of the 'standard' pile?

Whats next, a Glock revolver??????

Well I'm waiting for a Ruger 1911 or Walther 1911 to show up.

A 44MAG 1911 or 50AE 1911 would be interesting.
