I have both series 70 and 80 Colts and they all work great. Little bit longer assembly on the 80s but the FPS doesn't bother me.

1911 pattern pistols are not in the same category as polymer striker fired guns.

More metal, more machining, more fitting. They are not trying to compete IMO.

The regent 1911 is made in turkey I think. It was planned out by the guy that did the AGI armorers course DVD I just watched. They flew him over and he helped them plan it out. He said it's the best 1911 under $800. Lots of high dollar machines and good mfgr practices.
