re: Stainless 1911 and 12g tactical shotgun for under 700?

If you've heard of or handled a IAC import 1911 then you handled a Tisas more than likely. The company is a medium sized small arms supplier to countries in that part of the world. There's nothing wrong with them in the no-frills GI 1911A1 category. Much like an RIA. Turks build pretty decent guns these days for the money. If you just want something to sling .45 ACP then go for it.
