Well, I went ahead and bough a SF thru Top Gun Supply.com - I've bought many things from him over the years.
I prefer to see a gun in person, but he was nice enough to take some pics of it for me, and some close ups in areas I specified. I should have it Fri or Sat. It'll ship today!

Re: High price at Collectors
Thanks for that info. I've been wanting to try holding some STIs, but I never see anyone in this area who carries them. Thanks.

Re: High price at Collectors
I want a stainless without a rail - and I always prefer to see what I buy. But, I may have to do something like that...

Re: High price at Collectors
Well, I want to pay with a Credit card - and places like Gunslingers take cash only. Can you pay Ed Brown directly and then have them ship to ANY FFL?

Re: High price at Collectors
No, I don't see a rush on Semi custom 1911s to the level there was on stuff like AR15's a few months ago. I know they can charge what they want - but its not like I asked them to go down BELOW MSRP.

High price at Collectors
Always have seen higher prices at Collectors. Everyone sells BELOW MSRP usually, and Collectors typically sells at that price point. However, I went to buy an Ed Brown Special Forces today. They are charging $200 above MRSP.
I tried to get them to come down to at least MSRP - they wouldn't do it. He came down $60. The guy there stated that he has to pay more to get these guns - however, the MSRP is already a marked up price. And, they ARE listed on the official Ed Brown website as an official distributor. They still wouldn't budge for a guy ready to buy one right there on the spot. Sucks, as I drove about 90 minutes to get there. Oh well...
