You need to put the Bat Signal out for @Talyn .
He is everything guru on Girsan

Just the BHP-type models.

IMO those are the best available BHP-types right now & Girsan is addressing the market with "real" modernized models, as well as in the traditional Mk.II BHP configuration.

I would suspect their 1911-types are also solid, but that's the extent of my opinion.

IMO, the most recent 1911s I've gotten are RIA 1911s which I've been pleased with.

I do know that Girsan has a 2311 in partnership with EAA that looks to be promising.

The problem with the 1911's are that if I find any that work well with my wrist then what would I do with all of the other pistols I have! Slim chance of that happening!

Gersan! Is it another Canik or better? A few of the Gersans interest me, but no idea if they're any good/reliable? I figure I'd start here and go from that instead of review searching.

i have indeed had the Girsan clone to the Beretta 92 FS, and i can assure you that Girsan is a formidable firearms company, you won't be disappointed with.

i did "have to" sell off a few of my collection, so the Girsan went.

but from my experience with mine, they can't be beat...just like a Tisas......all are made to ISO 9000 standards

I bought my Girsan after waiting over a year to see the SA-35. It has the mag safety which I don't care for, but I like the gun. It is a solid, accurate shooter. I also got a CZ75 so I have an assortment of iconic handguns which include the 1911, 629, Schofield and Ruger single actions. I'm blessed.

I would go with a Girsan over a Tisas based on the results reported on a couple Tisas models.

AP5-P but it’s made with HK machining, so I think you get a pass.
