Thank you.
Personal opinion, unless you are a collector and the gun in question is an original military 1911 or 1911A1 or a reenactor who has to meet historical standards, then any departure from 1911A1 specifications is irrelevant. Again personal opinion, all that matters is how does the gun function, how does it shoot, how well does it work in the individual shooters hand, how reliable is it and is it of good quality. The minutiae of does it exactly follow this or that specification, is just picking at imaginary nits. I would like to thank you and your lovely wife for your consistently entertaining and informative videos. Oh if it matters I am a 73 year old retired Army NCO and 1911 collector.
I have a Tisas A1 Tanker in .45 acp . $ 299.00 last year and the best budget commander size 1911 .
Nice. I want to see a comparison this Tisas tanker vs Taurus G2C OR G3. al the same price .
your wife impressed me with the moving target. WOW! she even hit it on the move, back to back.
thanks for the uploads
I put some paint on my Tisas 1911 A1 in .45 and it helped quite a bit. Great way to get into 1911’s if you don’t want to spend a fortune
I truly appreciate you 2 reviewing 1911's
Thanks Tia and Graham
I now have 4 Tisas 1911's. 2 Duty's and 2 Carry's. Each pair in .45acp and 9mm. They are my favorite guns. Looks like this will be my next addition.
Thank you both for such informative reviews.
That is actually the one problem with Tisas pistols... You cannot buy just one! I am considering Tisas 1911 #3 at the moment.
Of both which caliber do you prefer?
Lucky guy. I wanted the new Tank Commander 45 but I found out that Tisas are not sold in CA. Ended up with a full size Rock Island 1911 A2 Hi-Cap 45. Heavy with thick grips but no issues so far. Would be an ideal truck gun with the 13 rounds magazine allowed in other states.
I wonder how this compares to the B9 carry, especially with the trigger comparison.
Mine is the tank commander 45 never had a problem she's on point actually perfect
It's nice to get an unbiased Review on 1911 9mm. I watch and hear. Alot discouraging things. Which are opinion based . Not Factual. Great Video Guys!
I don’t mind the extra range noise I enjoy it lol Thanks for the video.
Thanks, weget a lot of complaints, my guess is the complainer are used to watching the channels who have their own land.
9mm on a 1911 has the best recoil ever. I own a Spartan IV in 9mm, great shooting gun.
Greatly enjoyed all the feedback, been considering purchasing one of these 1911s, thank you for this vid.
I shoot revolvers more often that autos and learned to tuck my thumbs very early. The benefit is I never have issues with contacting the slide stop during firing. Over the years I've had many instructor try to correct my grip to a thumbs forward style. Nope, once past the class I go right back to what has always worked for me. Plus if I help others, my advice is try all these grip types and see what works for them and allows them to accurately hit the target with control. All that said, I think one of these may be coming to my safe in the near future. Thanks guys, God bless, Rob
Same here Old Salt. Cooper trained Weaver Stance that offense everyone I shoot near. No thumbs ever near a control.
An excellent presentation. Thorough with lots of good information, especially with the different mags and different ammo. Well done. Thanks.
Thank you. If you like this format you'll enjoy the channel, this is what we've done with hundreds of guns.
Very informative! (With a hint of mustard.) Thanks for the share!!
I like and trust Tisas, own a 1911 BR 45 Duty model, have no complains. I did change the spring guide rod for a full size and the extractor for an enhanced kind, both made by Wilson Combat. Zero issues, very accurate. Thanks for the video, GB 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for the review... as always great insight for future a purchase
Graham Baates You did It again, Great Review!
Great review. Love this channel going to pick one up thanks!
Excellent , detailed, fun, and thorough review as always. Mine is excellent and purchased after market parts. From MidWay USA WILSON COMBAT firing pin, firing pin spring, Flat wire recoil spring, ED BROWN ejector , Firing pin plate stop, trigger, and PACHMYR rubber grips. She's heavy, excellent quality, and super accurate. Had Martin decades of experience and custom 1911 gunsmith with 15x years specialization with Wayne Bernquist Expert 1911 Gunsmith. Unfortunately we lost Wayne and the community is devastated. Martin said the firing pin is shorter. Like the Taurus 1911. Even the WILSON COMBAT Elite 10 round magazine didn't fit because of floor plate on the magazine coming up on the front of the mag. The flat wire recoil spring it comes with is excellent as per Martin. He tested it and said I was really going to enjoy it.He lowered the trigger to 3 lb. trigger pull. I have a range in my backyard. Fired several mag fulls of the magazines it came with. She fires like a dream and excellent accuracy. I couldn't stop shooting. Wife was upset because my SIG RATTLER 5.56 is super loud. Pure excitement.....quality firearms. PEACE
Both of you great job!
Now after review I got go buy one thanks Graham!!!! Not suprise Tisas makes great gun.
This is probably the third or fourth time I've watched this video. Quite an interesting piece. I'd love to see y'all test the .45acp version not that there will be drastic differences.
Your content rocks dude and dudette! A little throwback vernacular.
IMO - so long as the format remains, I hope your channel doesn't "go off the air" for at least another 30 years... I just figured by then you might be ready to hang it up... very informative and entertaining... every firearm manufacturer should be telling you: please take this and this and this (etc.) and review it.
Thank you!
Very informative. Thank you
Recently bought a tisas 1911a1. Seriously impressed with it for the price. I will replace parts with nicer parts as stuff seems to need it, but don’t think I’ll have to worry for a long time
Excellent video.Was hoping to get mine but Bud's sent it to my FFL whom is out of town.
I have the larger brother of the Tank Commander, the full size 5-inch barrel. I like the way it shoots, but I feel the larger barrel makes it harder to control the muzzle direction and recoil. Besides, the 4.25-inch barrel I’d argue would make it far better as a conceal carry option and still carry the same mag capacity.
I’m gonna trade mine in for this. I feel I’d enjoy this so much more.
The word is Sweet 👍
Ordered one today.
Well done and informative! Going to order one today!
Awesome, I might have to get one in the 9mm, I have two 1911 in the .45 acp and 10mm but nothing in the 9mm now if I can just find one.
Nice
Love these Tisas reviews on this channel!!
Will you guys be getting the stingray ?
They also have the bobtail
I believe hammer forged slides and frame but in 45acp
I hope they make it in the 9mm, I’ll definitely get one
Again great video 👍
My comment shows one reply
I can’t see it of course
Thank you UA-cam for breaking lines of communication
I’m use to it, that’s what communists do 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Kimber is gonna have to step up now!
Can't beat the Tank Commander in cool factor and value, imho.
Great video as always. Two questions . . . Do you have any plans to revisit the Grand Power CP 380? Also, do you have any plans to include Underwood Ammo Extreme Defender solid copper defense bullets? Thank you!
The LP380 video is coming soon, no plans for the CP380 at the moment. We don't have any Underwood ammo
@@GBGuns Midway USA usually has Underwood ammo, and they offer free shipping at least once a month.
Wish they'd make a 9mm in stainless, really want one lol.
just bought one in Nickel finish, love it. 399.00
Do a comparison Metro arm 1911s vs tisas 1911s
I have both versions of the Tisas M1911a1 GI pistol. This is next on my list. Do you feel this would be adequate as a carry pistol?
Porfirio cadena yo opino que la pistola marca comander es la mejor escuadra en sus tres calibres
Question. Does the full size 45acp grips fit that compact 1911 9mm model you have?
Do a comparison for the budget-friendly this Tiasa tanker vs Taurus G2C or G3 .for the people on a tight budget
Do you want a 1911 or a striker-fired, polymer gun?
Watch a 1942 us Army 1911 training film for the grip they taught to the solders.
So, what was it specifically you and Tia figured out ?
Hey Graham, I’d like your take on the Federal 115grn jhp Train+Protect, if you can find it. They seem like a very great price for quantity.
I haven't shot it in a few years, but it's a good concept.
If you can find it, the price has went up drastically .... I haven't found any ballistics on it as far as expansion through a CC size barrel
Tisas should offer this in a lightweight 45 acp. Another offering should be a 50s vintage pre Gold Cup National Match
The Tank Commander is also available in 45 acp.
My local shop has the tisas tank commander in 45 acp wonder if it be as reliable as the 9mm version
I don't see why not
Yo T & G.
I painted the front sight
I think I'm gonna go with the full size in 9mm. I like the Tank Commander and judging by your video it seems great, but I also like the sweet shooting of the 9 in a full size like one I had in the 90's. I've got too many .45's already, including my Colt WWI remake in Carbonia Blue which is my every day. I'll just carry the Tisas in the rain and sweat and not worry so much about my Colt. Plus, at half the price per round I'll be able to save my .45 ammo that is stashed away. Got enough for the rest of my time here on the planet, but only if I don't eat away at it too much. I'll have some fun with the 9....

Please update this video to add text at the very beginning to talk about the lady's grip interfering with the last round slide lock. I noticed it right off and was questioning this, it would be nice to let your viewers know about this issue at the very beginning.
Videos can't be updated once uploaded. I believe we mention that issue later in the video. We film literally from first shots, so we're discovering things on the fly just as any new owner would.
No choking!!!! Well sign me up!!! Better put a rush on that, I gotta start a fight with someone and then claim self defense
I wish my kimber stainles target 2 9mm ran a reliable as this 9 only had it for 3 days got it Friday shot it Saturday sent it to kimber Sunday. It kept Failing to extract out of 300 rounds 40 plus didn't want to extract
Kimberly has had some issues lately
@@GBGuns lately??? Lol
@@hasgunwilltravel6840 that load combo has been around a couple of years
@@GBGuns I was joking about the quality. Kimber has had issues for a while. I worked there a few years back and have seen a lot of stuff lol.
Do you enjoy the 9mm 1911 more than the 1911 in 45?
I enjoy both of them, they're just different, and 9mm is more affordable to shoot.
I have the tank commander in 45 I'm kind of complex why would you buy it and 9 mm?
Higher capacity, lower cost of ammunition, smoother recoil, more efficient from a shorter barrel, need I list any more reasons?
Did yall get any hammer bite with that hammer ?
No
Let me try to explain the slide and your grip. I have seen many, mostly older shooter running with the thumb against the side of the slide. That is a HUGE no-no. You are causing friction against the slide which can cause the slide to slow down just enough to cause jams or not cycle back far enough to lock back. No matter the semi auto, do not set your thumb on the slide. It needs to move free from any interference. Many will cuss a gun for jamming when it’s the using not know the proper way to hold one.
I appreciate your comment, and though it may be true for some guns like a particular 1911 (specially chambered in 9mm), that's not the case for some. For example, the HK P2000 chambered in .40 S&W. We taught trainee Federal Agent to clamshell you palm heals in the back with no gaps and stack those thumbs along the side of the firearm. The purpose was to maximize friction along with setting the wrists. What this did, was it allowed the shooter to greatly manage the recoil where after the shot the sites would remain aligned, there would be a small muzzle rise but then the sites would quickly drop back on target where the shooter was aiming. The thumbs utilized in this fashion never caused a gun jam in all my range experience, but that could be because of that .40 S&W, that was one hell of a snappy round! I did see a lot of limp wristed stove piping though, but that had nothing to do with the thumbs affecting the slide... :) I am curious though; our Agency has changed over to the Glock in 9mm. I'm not instructing at the range anymore and I'm back out in the field. I would be curious if stacking the thumbs on our 9mm Glocks is demonstrating malfunctions back at the Academy on the firearms range.....
Graham, I wonder if you could answer a couple of questions for me on this gun. I'm going to buy a Tisas and am trying to decide which one. I have 50 years experience with 1911's in both competition and poice work. In retirement I teach concealed carry classes and in just about every one, some guy wants to try a 1911. I seem to have a hole in my gun safe that would just fit a Commander sized pistol, and lines of the Tank Commander appeal to me. might even carry one, but all of my current 1911's are too expensive to risk being dropped by s student, or taken into evidence by the police if I shoot someone.
Here are my questions. It seems sacrilegious to own a 1911 in other than .45 ACP, old Geezer that I am. So I thought it might be good to have one in 9mm in light of student use and my arthritic hands. How did you find the sights on the Tank Commander? Were they any taller than stadard GI? Would you be okay with them (with a bit of paint) for carry? Did you want the beavertail grip safety?
I ask because I see Tisas has the Carry Black for about $50 more that features dovetailed Novak style sights, a longer trigger, and beavertail grip safety with memory bump. I see it also has a factory ambi safety which doesn't matterr to me. Do you think I'd be happy with the more GI looking model, or be kicking myself for not spending the $50 on the enhanced version? Thanks in advance if you have time to reply. Also how do I tip you?
The sights are taller, and could be painted, but if the pistol is meant to be an example for training purposes why not get something more modern unless you want them to understand a classic? The grip was fine for my hands, but I also learned on a GI 1911 years back. Another way to look at it is you likely can't update this model for less than $50, so why not get the upgraded model that includes a warranty for those upgrades? As far as the tip (thank you) there should be a "Thanks" or "Super Thanks" button under the video, or you could join our Patreon.
@@GBGuns Thank you so much for responding. After I asked my questions i just about came to that same conclusion on my own using the same logic. I think I was sort of roped in by the Tanker's clean looks like I started with 50 years ago. I think I'll get the better spec'd Carry Black. Then if I like it I might also get the Tanker just for fun. Be well. I enjoy your reviews. Best to your partner as well.
I think the 1911 should be in 45. But 38 Super is acceptable as many were made in it. I have arthritis and it just hurts to shoot 45 anymore so I'm going to get a 38 . I rarely see a1911 in it so I'm planning on getting a 9 and a replacement barrel with link. Plus I'll need a different recoil spring.
Where I get mine ??
The article has links where you can find them.
I just traded my Beretta APX in for the 1911 I paid $420 for the APX new but I got a $308 trade in credit towards 1911 the owner of my local FFL Dealer knows I’m serious and I keep my word he never charge me for a deposit fee because he knows I’m a man of my word I bought 2 Glocks of him and my first 1911 .45 ACP 4 inch barrel
Is this made in USA ? If not where is it made?
Turkey.
All metal 9mm equals zero recoil
Is that a 4.5 inch?
4.25"
Mine malfunctions like crazy.
Different mags and ammo.
Mierda
That's why we show multipl ammo types and mags in our videos. It's a more fair review and possibly a warning to avoid certain combos.
I have 168 rounds through this exact gun. I lost count of the malfunctions. I’m so disappointed. I’ve wanted to buy a 9mm 1911 for like 5 years and everyone told me not to. I didn’t listen and now I have a $390 jamomatic.
What are the malfunctions? Have you tried other magazines?
Don’t feel bad…. I bought a colt 9 mm for $800 and it jammed regularly! I now have an sig p938 that runs flawlessly!
Again, 1911s can he very magazine picky. Try different magazines
Well it is a 1911 and if you were shooting in the American caliber, .45, it would be a case Murica!
I like my Tisas- but- shouldn't such a big girl be shooting a 10mm or .45 ACP?
🔥🤌🏻🇺🇸
Me enjoy subtle nuances of boom boom...maybe Trump would for birthday
Blaming Tia for your segue joke SMH
Lame, having complain about your grip on the gun...wow...next complain about bra size, or didn't get a coffee..or panties in a bunch...just saying.
Not complaints, commentary. Hand fitment and grip is very important on a HANDgun.
