Thumbs up New STI guy here

Over a period of several years,I'd heard a lot of positive about STI from owners. As a long time 1911 guy, and having owned Colt, Springfield, Kimber, Dan Wesson, Baer, Wilson, etc,etc, the STIs were an unknown quantity to me. A few months ago, I decided to take a chance and bought a Trojan in .38 Super. Having had the opportunity to put some rounds through it, I have to say I have been as pleased with the STI's reliability, accuracy, and especially it's overall build quality, as with any production 1911 I've ever owned. In fact, I've been impressed enough with my first STI, that I have another coming. It's kinda quiet around here in the STI section, so I'll take the opportunity to post a gratuitous photo;-)

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.

I love my STI, and yours is a more upscale model.



Good luck with your new STI.
