My Colt Combat Commander that I bought in the late 70's that cost $320 then, still is a good shooter, I just shot it last Sunday. But I noticed when shooting it, I must be getting very old, first time my wrist hurt after shooting that commander. My fault, I starting shooting it one handed, for some reason, my 1911's just feel very good shooting with one hand.

While working for a very expericiend gunsmith in Spokane, I was taught one major rule:
There is no such thing as a "good" cheap gun.
We always councilled our customers to buy the best they could afford. As Jim (the gunsmith) would say; Pay me now or pay me later.

Well the Rock Island was cheap and after thousands of rounds I sold it. I regret doing so. It was dependable, accurate and fun to shoot.
