Does anyone know anything about the Turkish 1911s Zenith sells?

How many Stainless Steel 9mm Commander Length 1911s will you find for an MSRP of $525? Sounds too good to be true!

Great plinking ammo, just not for bench rest rifles. Clean shooting stuff, I have a good amount of it. Every wally visit (I try to stay away from there) I pick up a few boxes. It's reloadable too.

I would like to see the link as well. The Tisas 1911 I had was excellent for it's price point. No failures of any kind and the fit and finish was nicer than a $1k pistol I used to have. The only negative I had about it was the trigger but, that can be smithed.

Found this about the early production Tisas Stainless 1911s:

http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/to...-a-do-not-buy/

Seems people had good luck with the blued Tisas models but when they came out with the stainless model it was a MAJOR POS.

Is is known for certain that these are the same as the Zig? The description of the finish in that article does match the picture...

the so called "Stainless" finish looks like they milled a frame and slide from a couple of pieces of steel, wiped them down with a scratch pad and threw them together
