$2800 isn't that a little high for a used gun.

I think someone here (lawdog) got quoted something a little cheaper for a new build. (Pro Compact). It is very nice no doubt about that though.

Isn't that GJ's CC that wouldn't run?

I believe so.

That must be why he states it had an issue with the slide stop.

This exact build would cost more than $2800 to duplicate now, trust me. Unless he was after the same exact build, one quote doesn't equal the next.

Hope you didn't take that the wrong way. I was just asking.

I understand, I was just saying is all. The price jumps on just the "Radical Carry Bevel" now is crazy, I think it went up $150.

Hokie1911 · 07-29-2011, 21:17

When I priced out a Custom Carry with SACS earlier this year....it was just north of $2,800.

5" Custom Carry Operator .45acp
flush crowned
ball cuts
Harrison trigger
10-8 rear/tritium front
flush slide stop
30lpi FS and MSH
Armory Kote

Wow, that's a pretty plain build for the price. I know they raised their prices back in 2010, must have been more than I thought.

Yeah, honestly I was shocked. George was a few hundy cheaper for it, but I was like $2,600.....yeah, no thanks. Would be just as happy with another Brown or Baer for $400 less.

Crazy, I know my FFL's price for a base CC was $1400 at the time. I would think your specs should have been around $2200.

I wish I would have kept to the simple, entry level 1911's now, but, live and learn.

Base CC was $1,800 I think. I was hoping to keep it close to your as mentioned $2,200. That's where I could get a railed Kobra with my KC build specs or a Baer Ultimate Recon for. Above that, I would consider a Guncrafter American or a Pro, but that CC price was absurd.

The sad thing about the CC is you don't even get checkering/front strap treatment standard. I never understood that. It is definitely crazy on the price you got for the options.

I went stupid when I ordered mine, and I have a feeling I'll either be stuck with them or take a bigger loss than I want.

Hokie1911 · 07-29-2011, 21:38

Yeah no kidding. No FS done at $1,800 is just silly. With the selection of Browns/Baers available for less, that doesn't make any sense at all, and once you get the FS done you are at $2k, and that whole "diminshing returns" thing sort of slaps you in the face....and that doesn't include any other adds.

Yep, I have a feeling I learn this. I knew it when I ordered if I ever thought about selling one it would be difficult. I'm just testing the waters with mine for now.
