Yeah, not going to get one, not for $1000. No family history with them, to quote my Marine WWII and Korean war vet Grandfather "couldn't hit *expletive deleted*it with one in training, never bothered to try to pick one up in the field". He had an M1917 in training, then a 1903 initially, then carried a M1 carbine the rest of WWII. In Korea he had an M2 Carbine. The 1911 was out of service before I went in the Army.
