Hey I don't know if this kind of post is frowned upon or not but I need help deciding. I have 1911 fever and really want one.
I saw a used Para EXPERT 1911 in all black at cabellas and they would take $475 I went to do the back ground check and got delayed. After I left I found out that mills fleet farm has the Taurus PT1911 on sale for $469 new.
I don't know what I should do. I like the styling of the Para better but I dont mind the Taurus and since it's new for less money it seems like a far better deal. The para has a scratch ontheback of the slide and other than that it's clean. The part I find unpleasant to look at on the Taurus is that goofy looking hammer.
This gun is going to be used for fun purposes and will be carried every once in a while.
Do I get the used para? New Taurus? Different make and model?
Any thoughts or opinions would be nice
