why would a custom 1911 company with great guns and where a lot of those guys came from Wilson contract out low quality mags.

That is indeed, the question!:supergrin:

Pretty good read on the Vicker's. The Vicker's gun is now called the Enforcer and is a pretty awesome design!!! I wish I would have had the extra $ to do a Predator/Enforcer build like initially planning on. It was either that or the BD finish(which i really wanted)

I love the Enforcer.

Saw this one on another forum. This is exactly what I'm leaning towards. NH does 20 LPI checkering don't they?

Maybe with these grips.

And/or a set of these...

Damn. I think I've answered my own question.

I almost bought the black Alumagrips when I ordered the Enforcer, actually.

I had a NH GRP with rail. Felt a bit big and heavy, and was sold at a significant loss on Gunbroker. There may be more depreciation with NH than with Wilson or Ed Brown. Yes, you may actually have to sell your gun one day. Ease of resale is a factor for some.

I actually preferred shooting my SA TRP at the range if I had both that day. That may be my bias against the rail guns, however. Performance was similar.

I am in the process of buying an Ed Brown Kobra Carry at the moment.

I don't particularly care for the NH front strap treatment. It is not consistent from gun to gun or model to model. Some have high cut, others look like a stock Colt with checkering starting 1/2 inch under the trigger gaurd. Some have a "fire road" line before the checkering starts.

I think the big and heavy issue was due to the rail, wouldn't you say?

None of the semi-customs hold their value well. Colts hold their value the best out of all the common 1911s.

They all do. Its an option at Nighthawk.

Here's my Predator II.

I like the enforcer, but this one is just plain sexy

Wilsons seem to hold value pretty well. A Wilson CQB bought 5 years ago for $1950 would still sell for about that amount now given the recent price increases for the new ones. Even the new resales seem to lose only about $300-500 max.
My GRP was $2700 new, sold for $1750 in basically mint condition. That's pretty low, considering I probably have over 100 sales on GB. Who knows, could have been a one time fluke.

For what it's worth, the NH was very well made, but that's a given once you enter into the over $2K range. I have seen some Talons that were fantastic. I like the option of using other grip safeties and thumb safeties.
