![5 Best 1911 Handguns For The Money [You'll Fall in Love]](/img/n.gif)
Excellent.
When it comes to guns, Americans know their stuff like no one else
1911 compact.....love of my entire life! Edit: in .45acp!
Same but 9mm
Absolutely .45ACP My Friend, Why shoot twice? : )
@@xinuganda221 shooting twice is just silly :D
Frame is aluminum, hence the "lightweight"
if you go to the colt site it supposedly says steel frame but I doubt it.
Easy test. Got a magnet?
I'm usually not a fan of the stainless steel, but I really like it with this one. Thanks for making this video!
I’m usually not a fan of the brunettes but i really like it with you. Thanks for making this comment!
It scratches way too easily and shows everything.
Just adds character
My Friend, Your excellent video skills are straight to the point with no side BS Thank You! Your lighting and clear visible way you display each item, with excellent voice and good information is to be highly commended.
You just made a lot of people well informed, and personally for me, your video was the final deciding factor for me purchasing this weapon over the Kimber Ultra Carry.
I've seen other videos of course with some real "Tacti-Cool" chuckleheads, and I learned bit's and pieces from each one, but with your excellent video skills, YOU sold me.
Thanks for this excellent video and I sincerely hope a rep from Colt HR was watching.
Big Cheers Mate. I've Absolutely Subscribed!
Dude, me too. Was gonna get Kimber cdp
I have a 2 tone and It's my favorite 1911 I have, actually one of my favorites in my whole collection
Does it have a steel frame or aluminum?
Aluminum, its still solid af. I love it
Love the look of this one. Uncharted 2 brought my attention to it.
I love this gun but I wish Colt would put front strap checkering and an extended thumb safety on it.
They can't make everyone happy
I picked one up 3yrs ago and upgraded the sights to Trijicon night sights, Wilson trigger, Hogue rubberized grips.
Nice gun im waiting for Colt to make a new officers model again as i have a 84 . Wish you would of mentioned if the mainspring housing back strap is metal or plastic?
On the Lightweight, the frame is aluminum, not steel. Other than that little detail, great video!
My gun dealer sells it for $1099.99 that is $200 over the MSRP. When I walked in this gun shop, I knew that I wanted a 1911 45 caliber. I always wanted to own a colt but thought it was rather doubtful to get one because a lot of gun shops just didn’t have them. A lot of gun shops either didn’t carry them because of competitors or they just couldn’t get their hands on the plane and simple.
I was thinking about getting a Springfield 1911 that had cherry colored grips. Unfortunately, they didn’t have that color grips in stock. They had some darker color that I was not interested in.
Then all of a sudden young sales person eyes lit up, and said hey do we still have that Colt that we just got in yesterday asking the other sales sales, he said he wasn’t sure because he had plenty of people looking at it when they got it in . The second salesman helped him find it in the drawer. He showed me a 1911 colt 45 defender with cherry color grips on it.
The barrel was a short, 3 inch, I was kinda looking for something longer the traditional type however, when I held this particular gun in my hand, it was a perfect fit. I found guns hard to be a good fit for my small hands because my hands were not with long fingers..
The three salesman were talking about that gun for at least 15 minutes saying how hard it is to get a firearm in their store let alone a new one from Colt.
they all were talking about this particular Colt and I don’t think it was a sales tactic for me to buy it.
The guy was telling me that our shop makes request for handgun all the time, but for to meet supply in demand, they have them on the list and will send very few out whenever they can .
Although you have 15 to 18 rounds and 9 mm handguns out there, I keep hearing people can’t hit their target in a shoot out.
They said that whenever they get any kind of Colt 45 in their inventory it doesn’t last long.
I had gone to three other gun shops and nobody had a colt 45 in stock not even an old one . I realize after looking it up online, this particular gun dealer wanted $200 more over MSRP but I knew damn well if I didn’t put a deposit on it, I would most likely never be able to get on for years to come.
It was a nice compact Concealed Carry type of colt 45 that was perfect for my hand. Great balance in the weight awesome Novak sites. The gun can take the typical eight rounds with one in the chamber I thought not a bad.
The gun is a real beautiful gun a real work of art. It’s certainly did not look cheap looking. I think the average person out there spends about five or $600 on a handgun. This one was $1100 and I thought my life is worth more than that. You want a reliable good quality firearm to protect yourself.
Many people I know keep saying get a 9 mm instead which I actually own a compact one Smith & Wesson. Not a bad gun I kept on hearing strange stories about the 9 mm.
I keep on hearing how people miss their targets in a shootout or that it’s not an enough stopping power in a shoot out. however, a 45 caliber has some serious stopping power.
I asked my gun instructor why he carries a 1911 handgun? He said good stopping power and I don’t have the confidence in a 9 mm like many other people do. I noticed he carried a $5000 1911 brand which I will not name. I asked him about that and he said it’s over and there are less expensive 45 caliber handguns that probably would be even better than the one he’s carrying.
I asked him don’t you feel carrying eight rounds at a disadvantage over someone you might have to go against that’s carrying around 9 mm. He said absolutely not.
It’s not how many rounds you carry, it’s what you can hit with what you have.
I asked him what he thought about revolvers. He said revolvers are the most reliable guns there are, they don’t jam up, but I will tell anyone carrying one make your shots really count because you only have six. He said, I found revolver hard to conceal.
He did say one thing, it’s always a good idea to carry a back up handgun a number two.
Young salesman said to me, it’s a Colt you can’t go wrong with it. The young salesman didn’t realize it, but he already sold me the idea of buying it. He said we don’t get many cults coming in our store. We are lucky to get 4 Colt guns a month and we never know exactly what kind that we are getting.
Young sales are said I can promise you before the weekend is over that gun will be sold and I believe him. You still have people in GunBroker selling old Colts World War II ever selling them for as high as $2000
And I noticed it’s hard to even get a brand new Colt. I think with supplying demand worldwide owning a Colt is getting to be a rare thing to have in your gun collection.
Jeez you think you could make a Short post!!😮
WOW! Certainly not short of words are we?
these short barrel 1911s are nice. you should try to get a hold of a kimber raptor II and unbox that
I was dead set on getting Kimber cdp …until I looked into this colt defender. I’m picking up mine on Monday.
My favorite gun,, there is another one called colt combat elite defender
Hope they’re better than the 1st ones years ago. I bought on then, extremely accurate, but a jamomatic… back to Colt twice. They ended up agreeing to send me a full size which went back once, jamming again, custom shop went over it came back perfect… That was then….
Great video and that is my next firearm.
Absolutely beautiful
Beautiful piece! How does it perform ?
Can you review a 1911 Tisas 45 ACP Carry model next? Curious on your thoughts on that pistol - great content and video quality Gun Box Therapy, keep it up!!
Baby 1911, nice
Great video on the colt defender
I’m convinced our Lord carries a Colt 1911 in 45 and drives a Ford truck
احب هدا السلاح انه مسدس خاص بي وشخصي احبه كثيرا
I like this gun so much
Frame is aluminum.
Was just going to mention that...Hence the Lightweight...
How much it cost the colt defender 45cp,? Thanks a lot
Aluminum frame. Two mags.
Very nice. Ideal for CCP. I have a very similar Kimber, 3" in stainless. It is my CCP.
I can barely handle a full sized GI 1911. Chopping inches and ounces off of it must make it safer to be on the receiving end than the recoil end.
Very very nice
Um sonho de consumo!
Is it 80 or 70 series? Thanks 👍🏼
Series 80
@@crvvan9966 thanks.
Is that a 70s or 80s series ? ?
What’s the update??
Nice.
Nice 👍
The "horse" you referred to on the gun....is called the "Rampant Colt" .... not a horse.
Am I the only one, that thinks the shorter barrel 1911’s look better than the longer original?
Should’ve never sold it. But it was a hand cannon no fun to shoot
Hey! They still make these?
Yes
Классное видео
idk if its good for home defense or even does any damage....its cute.....i want it
Uhhhh you can get it in 357 38 9 mil and 45 it’ll do a lot of damage lol
@@jaydenzerfoss118 nice 45 and 357 is best
hi im from india .here we have one which is a copy of colt defender...i am planning to buy one but but sure about the range , power,performance of this model due the short barrel and the huge .45 that goes into it...can any one who has experience in this perticular model tell me. what is the difference between a full size 1911 and this one in terms of range , power,performance ?
abhinandanmohanty,
You won't notice any difference in performance... ☆
How much that gun?
How much
I have one for sale. What’s the going price for the same gun, but older? Anyone know?
$5 but I’ll give $7 😏
Amazes me Colt still doesn't do an ambi-safety in their new guns.
Why should they!! I think it looks stupid
@@enricomandragona163 Guess you've never had to train with your weak-hand.
Biuriful
I have one in 9mm.
👍💎💥
how much?
950.00. Buy a bul armory 1911 ultra instead. Bul you can trust.
Maybe you don't know as much as you think. The crown on a barrel is a chamfer or undercut on the inside of the barrel. Get some help.
👍
Pretty little guns， but like toys, sorry
เป็นปืนสั้นที่สวยงามมากอยากได้เป็นเจ้าของจังเลย.
Hence the inferior quality...
What your point? Nearly all Sigs metal guns have aluminum frames and they do fine for decades charging a 1k.
Colt is crap and has been since the late 80's. I own 4 and wouldn't trust any of them as a carry gun.
Really?
Why is that?
Colt is now owned by CZ, I have heard their quality control is much better now.
Aluminum frame
❤❤❤❤❤
