Can you explain the difference in quality of the guns as seen in the catalog and taurus website as compared to the ad at Bugs Gun shop? THe catalog ones look like they spent a few grand having it spiffed up by kimber for example while using a low quality gun put together by an alcoholic for the gunstore ad.
The safety has me confused here. In one paragraph it sounds like flipping the manual safety to "on" disengages the sear as well as lowering the hammer all the way down onto the firing pin. In adifferent paragraph it sounds like the manual safety merely deactivates the firing pin for the user to safely lower the hammer down by hand.
And do you need any tools for dissassembly? THe manual makes it clear that you push in the spring button/cap in, and rotate the bushing guide. Yet every article on the 1911 i have seen in the past says you CANT dissassembly without having a 10 dollar bushing tool.
SO whats the story on the safety and the dissassembly/
