Just noticed that Gander Mountain is advertising their special PT1911 kit (2 extra mags) for $699.95. Anything special about this one, because it seems a bit pricey, especially since they have a Kimber Target model for $300 more? If I wanted a 1911 and didn't know anything about the Taurus, for that difference in price, I just might go with the Kimber, solely on reputation.
Since I've had a PT1911 for about a year and am very pleased with the pistol, Dropping a grand on a Kimber is not high on my purchase priorities. But then, neither is $700 for a PT1911B unless it is really special. Unless you hit one of their really good sales, GM has been a bit too proud of their handguns for my budget.
