Check Out the 100-Year Old Gun That Keeps Beating Glock

A classic.

 

Some folks treat their guns as an extension of their bodies and even personalities, not just as a utilitarian tool. Therefore, it makes sense to select an accessory that speaks for itself.

The 1911 pistol is most of the times a workhorse, but collectors like to take it a step beyond. By ordering custom-made, sometimes one-of-a-kind pieces that satisfy both technical and aesthetic desires they create a legacy piece.

 

The sky’s the limit for the price tags on these pieces. However, this is irrelevant when you’re creating a custom pistol.

The 1911 is so much more than a gun, is a symbol of freedom, courage and lineage.
