This is an auction for a pistol for a great cause, congrats to the winning bidder.
I agree. What I said is the truth, I would not and can not afford an $18000.00 1911, And I do not know anyone who could or would, it IS for a good cause, it takes MONTHS (Many) for me to save enough to get an $1800.00 Pistol.
Wilson Combat is a Great Company with Great Employees. Glad they can do this. Somebody with Very Deep Pockets will get the Fine Pistol They Built.
By the way, what is wrong with the trigger on this?

Now how did you know I was talking about that gun???

I'm just messing with ya dw. Seeing if you were gonna bite at my post and ya did.

As far as the trigger goes, there's just something about it that rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's the fact they tried to fit an "hour glass" figure in it? It's just weird to me.

Can't wait to see you get yours though.

I do pay attention . I knew what gun you were referring to. Personally, I like it because it's different than the usual Dan Wesson Triggers.
Glad you "Messed with Me" though! I Like It!

Top Bid still at $18,000.00.
Somebody that is very wealthy will have it.
