Might Look at other 1911s for Concealed Carry
It may seem like a good price, but I don't think these were made for concealment. The rear sights are set very far forward on which makes for a hard time getting in and out of a holster. The gun also has sharp edges and chiseling which makes for snags if you have to take out quickly.
I regularly carry a Kimber CDP II, Ultra Eclipse, or Ultra Carry. Have to admit kimbers are pricey, so if cost is a factor you might want to check out a colt defender or other .45 that is better suited for carry and will have no problem with parts in the future.
