A basic 1911 trigger job would start at $100
Ok, so I can buy an extra hammer and sear with mine for when I first use the Brownells handy-dandy hand held sear polishing thing-a-ma-jig that I'm gonna now buy ;D
Yes, only the Thunderbolt with the magwell doesn't like them
American Tactical Imports....
If you look them up, the US pricing on these are 30%-50% higher then Wolverine had on these now.

IMO it would be nuts to go nork over these....
Except for those who are worried about the gun wearing out before their grandson dies of old age (cue cast/forged 'tardery).

I find it interesting now that Seraphim Armoury came out with a new lineup of 1911s, introduced the lowest pricing in the industry for the quality and did it FOR the firearms community (not for themselves), you now DROP the prices. Hmm. Your price drop, sir, was solely due to Seraphim Armoury giving people what they want, not because you initiated it. Unfortunately, Seraphim Armoury is not on CGN and most CGNners don't know why they're getting such a 'great' deal on SAMs - which means for years they weren't??Funny, all I hear is Canadians complaining about high firearms prices and now that the little guy gives it to them, the big guys try to act like they're for the people? Think about this peeps, Seraphim Armoury changed the industry with their pricing for quality, is by the people and for the people.
Uhhh Serawhatever doesn't even have guns yet, they have posted approximate pricing which may change, offer basically no warranty, have less features on most of their guns, it's run out of someone's basement so they have no overhead, and the biggest price difference BEFORE the fire sale here was $50.....lowest was $15, and oh yeah, they don't have any guns yet.....
Even for $15-$50 more I would buy from a real dealer.
If anything, it sounds like SAM pissed on Wolverines exclusive rights to sell these here....so they will move this stock and tell SAM to pound sand. Good luck to the little guy that SAM demands they move 5000 pistols every 6 months or whatever deal they have.

So 3 part timers with a 30 day warranty can price a firearm cheaper than Wolverine Supplies with 20+ employee's and a year warranty plus the Wolverine name behind the product.
p.s. you do realize this is Wolverine's page that they pay good money for. Kinda bad etiquette don't you think. Shhhh, I know the truth too

Hmm wonder what your connection to Seraphim is? Glad to hear you consider Wolverine one of the "Big guys," finally starting to get some well deserved credit for their 25 years of hard work. And yes, shame on them for also offering a quality product at a lower cost to remain competitive, terrible people they are. And why would you want to deal with a company that stands 100% behind their product with a "no muss no fuss warranty" anyways when you could opt for the 30 day warranty the "little guy" is offering. "After the 30 day period, remember to support the qualified gunsmith industry, they’re there for a great reason and need support too!" (Read: If our product falls apart please don't bother trying to contact us for support cause you aint gonna get it). If you really need more persuading here's another quote from the "little guys" website.
"We’re not going to promise the moon – i.e. great service and lifetime warranties – that would just be ridiculous for what you’re paying
" Man that smiley face is familiar. Thread derailed but thank you wolverine for being one of the best and continuing to offer quality products AND service and an affordable price, I will be owning a SAM in the near future.

No hate for the little guy at all.
Just do not use the Wolverine sponsored page to promote other businesses. It is quite clear.
