From the wife, but I had to pick it as she has no CCW permit.

Taurus PT1911B - 45ACP

Do you think I can wait till Christmas day to try it out?

I think this will be a fun shooter how many days til Christmas?

I also laid away a used Taurus PT99 - 9mm with 4 mags (2 are high cap) while I was there. I used to have one and miss it. Never sell guns!

Nice piece, what did you give for it ? When they first came out they could be had for under 500 bucks, the local shops now have them from 550-650

Congrats!!!! You will love it!

I actually shoot my RIA 1911A1 better, but the Taurus looks better! I think it is a fantastic buy at around $500!!!! The included mags are great too - similar to Novaks (which I prefer over all the 1911 mags out there) but made in Brazil. Invest in some quality mags and you will be set!

Enjoy it and have a great weekend.:cool:

Here is mine - looks just like yours!:cool:
