I like that, I prefer no beavertail on a commander sized 1911 personally. Hard to find in stock pistols.

Me too. I've built several of them up that way.

You do know SA imported their 1911 parts (frames & slides) from Brazil for decades…and the majority of their non-1911 pistols now come from Croatia…

Just sayin’…

Let's not forget about the majority of the SA-35s' origins.

Why my SA-35 was a jam o matic

My full size 1911 is a tisas and I've had ZERO issues with it. With exception of the grips, it completely stock. The sights could be better but they are military sights

If some want a USA-made 1911 USGI variant then Auto Ordnance makes full-sized & Commander (Tanker) versions, albeit at a higher price than the Turkish versions.

I don't have any experience with their 1911s, but my Tisas Fatih 13 (Beretta 84 clone) has been 100% reliable. Fit and finish are much better than I expected for the price. If I were in the market for a 1911, I'd be willing to consider a Tisas.

darned good, well built 1911.

for the money, a very good starting point for a newbie to get, practice with, and then go up the scale for others, from various makers.

I bought a Tisas Tanker version a few months before the Tank Commander came out. I have been very pleased with the Tanker and for the price I may go ahead and pick up a Tank Commander too.
