Best 1911 Clone

[Mr. Friendly]

I'm in the market to buy my first handgun. so something in .22LR is a must and the next inexpensive cartridge would probably be the 9mm. I understand that opinion's will vary, but let's see if any majorities arises from the comments submitted. who makes the best 1911 clone in both 9mm and .22LR? Thanks!

norinco and norinco!

norinco doesn't make a 1911 in 22,

I would suggest, Kimber, and Sig

Enjoy the ride.....

A fine gun I'm sure, but it's a scaled down version, in size and weight, of the original.

Ouch...

How much?

 

[Mr. Friendly]

pricing wasn't that bad...$599. a bit more than a MKIII or a Buckmark for sure, but mine is one of the Centennials as well.
