Bill's Hudson has a 50GI in the showcase!?!

[Seismic Sam]

Was looking through the high end 1911's in Bill's, and here's a coal black one with the GI logo on the grips. I asked to see it, and the young lady said I was the first person to even recognize it, and it was a Guncrafters Model #1, in 50GI. Serial number was 1685, which means GI has made about a 1000 more since I got mine with a 600ish serial number. I told her the only way to recognize it was the mag base, as it's thicker than any other 1911 because Alex had to have the extra room to still allow for 7 rounds, and then I showed such a mag base sticking out if the 1911 in my waistband. They had 2 boxes of bullets, with one being plain old boring lead SWC bullets, and the others were the 230 grain 1000 FPS solid copper daisycutters that expand out to a full inch. They were 20 for $50, which isn't bad seeing as the bullets alone are lathe turned and a buck apiece. Price on the gun was $3319.

Some day I will hopefully get to a place that I can financially afford to own a few nice weapons such as this.

Here is a good place to buy Guncrafter and Wilson Combat guns. Call or email for actual price. George is wonderful to deal with!

Tax add quite a bit when you get into the $3000+ range. Too bad there isn't a way to get a break buying from Bill's in WI.

Oh yeah, I thought about jerking Cobb's chain on this, since he's been drooling over mine since I got it (like 7 years ago??), and the joke got so old that it had cobwebs on it when I pulled it out of the drawer this morning. Hey Cobb, now you can go and actually touch one, and it's for sale!! Neener, neener, neener... You know you want it, you know you want it...

I have at least one GI pistol in each store. There are two in Robbinsdale, including the new "Frag" model in 45ACP if the cost of the 50GI ammo is a concern...

What a beauty!

They don't have the bling and extra machine work of the Nighthawks, but you can tell they spent a lot of time and care putting these together

Bills robbinsdale has or had a model 3 50GI available. I am very happy with mine, I'd like to take it to a steel shoot next year

We have some as well! Glad to see GI's has made its way to the dealers here locally! Alex is a master at his craft and runs a good crew!

Your pics are great! I check almost every day to see if that WC Supergrade Professional is in. I can't afford it but sure want to see what it looks like.
