I am thinking of buying a Tactical Supergrade, but I hope someone out there will give me a good reason NOT to spend 5000.00 on a single pistol. Are these pistols really worth the price?
Aunity,
A Wilson Combat 1911 is a well-made pistol. A Supergrade is a cut above everything and one of the best,
no matter who is talking about the best 1911s made.
I have a Wilson Combat 1911 45acp Supergrade AND a Wilson Combat 1911 9mm Classic.
Both pistols are almost identical, except I put carry cuts and ball endmill cuts on the 45acp.
The workmanship, while excellent on both, you can still see the hand-fitting and the workmanship on the 45acp, befitting a pistol that is about $2200 above the 9mm.
It will take about 3 years if you order now, as I ordered mine in January 2013 and got it in December 2015, almost 3 years.
I ordered mine from George at migunslingers.com. I got a real good price (about 10%off MSRP). I have ordered 3 pistols and 2 rifles from him.
Make sure you custom-order all the options you want, as it is a Supergrade that you will never sell to anyone !
Take a look at my Wilson Supergrade Classic on page 62, #1235 on: November 26, 2015, in this section for the specs on mine.
