After numerous attempt to fix these monstrosities I now refuse to even entertain the idea and just hand the customer the AO/kahr Arms phone number and thus keep my blood pressure in check. Slides too soft, frame rails too hard, parts of undetermined origin, sheared off barrel lugs, etc,etc,etc.on and on, ad infinitum. I have been a gunsmith (not a freaking part swapper) for over 40 years now and their product has been crapola since its inception. Please, in the name of John Moses Browning.do not buy the abortion that is the Auto Ordnance 1911 pistol. Taylor’s 1911 comes complete with a black carrying case and a total of two magazines. Taylor’s offers four models of the 1911 style: the different models feature a unique magazine spring shape, and one has a lanyard ring (details below).Īll of the 1911 models are series-70 compatible. This is a single column, magazine-fed pistol with an eight-round capacity. Government Model 1911 semi-automatic pistol. The 1911 model is chambered for.45 ACP ammunition and is a close reproduction of the original U.S.

1911 Pistol series is a comprehensive group reproduced using specifications from original government issued models. My shooter is an older Springfield Armory 1911A1 'Mil-Spec' model and IMHO the one from Taylor's is every bit as good as my Springfield Armory (which is an 80 Series, by the way.) Here's what Taylor's says: The Taylor’s & Co. I have several other 1911s, but I bought one of the Taylor's/Armscor 1911s on an impulse about a month ago just because of the price. The ones Taylor's is selling are made by Armscor (Rock Island) and Armscor/Rock Island has a pretty good reputation.far better than the stuff Auto Ordnance has been putting out. Surplus 1911 magazines can still be found NIW for well under $20. About the only thing funky about the Armscor 1911s is the magazines: they come with a padded/plastic floor plate. IMHO these are about as close to a USGI 1911/1911A1 as you're going to get without dropping significantly more coin. Parts interchange with the WWII-era USGI guns and the 70 Series 1911/1911A1s do not have the hammer block of 80 Series.

Is currently selling base-model 70 Series 1911A1s for $3s doe $375 kind of tough to beat that price. If Springfield isn't making their GI 1911 anymore, that's too bad. I will never own anything marked Auto Ordnance OR Kahr Arms, their owner. I know you aren't looking for a Thompson here, and I haven't heard major issues with their 1911s, but that experience FOREVER soiled that company with me. I machined the old bolt and got it working properly again, kept it a few years, and got rid of it when it looked like a new federal law might pass, and I reasoned that I would be willing to pay a tax stamp on my Vietnam-style AR, and definitely my M1 Carbine (in the event of such a law), but not one red cent for that Thompson. The firing pin was also about.125' too long, and would blow holes through primers. At this point, I got the old bolt out, and found that it was milled.0030' too shallow, so the extractor would just mangle itself against the rim of the casing, and not extract it, leading to some really nasty stovepiping.

Apparently, heat treating isn't a big priority with them. Worked fine for about 7 months, and then it started cracking where the extractor slides in. Eventually, I got a hold of someone else who sent me a new bolt which worked.

Took a week to get anyone on the phone after that. Had they read the letter I sent with it (which they advised me to do) they would have known that I already switched extractors and that it needed to be test fired more than once for it to start jamming up. I eventually sent it back to the factory, where it was lost, and came back late with a note that just mentioned switching the extractor, which I'd already done. Wouldn't function out of the box, brand new at over $1000. I can't speak for the 1911, but I had their Thompson a while back. I would be thankful for any first hand accounts of this pistol. I have owned 4 1911s in the past but never this brand. I only run ball ammo so it should function.

I have a Thompson / Auto Ordinance Ao 1911 A1 with serial number AOC 22512. I'm also new to the forum and have a number of questions. We now offer high quality copies of various hard to find government reports, files. For years we have been asked about various government reports. I know they are not considered a high end firearm, but are they reliable? I have never owned an Auto Ordnance gun before. I understand Springfield has discontinued their GI version. I know it's got a hammer block so it is not a true mil spec. 1911 I can find on the market is the one offered by AO.
