Form AND Function
by James on Feb.03, 2010, under Random
Now, for me, I’ve never seen the need to gold plate my firearms. The various gaudy embellishments that some people seem to think are necessary really detract from the weapons appearance as well as its functionality.
Personally, I have always been drawn to the elegant design and simple functionality of the Colt Model 1911.
I know that this pistol has quite a few adherents, the design has been in service for almost one hundred years.
Some may say that there is little that can be done to improve upon the original design, aesthetically speaking.
Well, Talo has managed it.
And it’s only just a bit north of $1600.
