Looks awesome, built solid, but generally a piece of crap. I wouldn't trust it when my life is on the line.
The action is just to short for reliable functioning. I owned one & learned to distrust it quickly. The extractor always needed retensioning & once the recoil spring had endured just a couple hundred rounds it started short cycling & stuff. It would either stovepipe or simply fail to strip a round from the magazine.
Finally I sent it back to the factory for repairs. They replaced the spring & extractor and re-polished the feed ramp. Then I traded it for my Wife's new Kahr CW-9 at the last gun show.
I'd suggest that you look for a model of 1911 with at least 1/2" longer barrel. From what I've read you'll get far more reliability with just that extra 1/2".
