An outstanding commander for the money. I was so impressed with the gun that I ordered a second one.

Quality made firearm. Good balance, accurate to 50 yards, flawless functioning right out of the box. Very pleased. Buds does it again

I bought this pistol based on my experience with Metro Arms in the past. I have a full size American Classic II; Stainless in 38 Super, and the quality of that piece of top notch. This Commander is no different. I don't think you can get a better 1911 for anywhere near this price. The quality of the Metro Arms pistols is miles above RIA, Iver Johnson, and is even up there near Ruger! In the two weeks I've had this pistol I've run around 600 rounds through. She takes JHP, hardball, lead, and even SWC. It's just a well made, well fitted, quality pistol at a great price. I bought it on Bud's layaway program, and it took about a week to have in my hand from the time of final payment. I will be looking forward to purchasing many more guns from Bud's in the future. Thanks Bud's!

The gun itself is great its tight fitted and feels great in the hand and shoots well when it actually shoots.I'll tell you right off the bat change the mag it is horrible or at the vary least take it apart and stretch the magazine spring.

I purchased the American Classic from Bud’s after looking at half a dozen other 1911s. I already own Rock Island, Ruger, Remington and Sig 1911s and was just looking for another one. I shoot them regularly and have experience with other brands as well. I am partial to the design but I do have other pistols. The pistol arrived in record time, five days after purchase, even though it was the week before Christmas. I don’t think one can ask for better service than that. The first thing one does after getting a new 1911 is to rack the slide. The official reason is to clear the weapon but it will also indicate the initial quality of the piece. Racking the slide on the American Classic made me pause. It felt equal in fit to my Ruger and Sig. The pistol was drenched in oil so I dissembled and cleaned it. Two things stood out, an extremely tight barrel bushing and a guide rod that was just over one inch. It has been my experience that a tight barrel to bushing fit will usually yield in better accuracy and short guide rods do work. The pistol has a blued finish. The bluing is rather thin looking and does not approach the deep blue found in more expensive guns and will likely lead to quick holster wear and scratches from assembly. The trigger and the hammer are both skeletonized. The hammer has a unique webbing design to the cutout. I think it is suppose to be an M and an A for Metro Arms but I couldn’t see it. The beaver tail is extended but the safety is not ambidextrous. The grips are wood and show some detailing but are not aggressively checkered. They are a little too light in color for my tastes and will soon be swapped out for a set of brown G-10 grips to get a better purchase. The sights are Novak style that have a white three-dot configuration but are not night sights and the slide top has a dull finish to aid in sighting. The pistol comes with one ACT magazine. The slide has rear serrations but there are none on the front. The feed ramp is highly polished, something that is not common on a lot of pistols. The trigger is very smooth and pulls at a consistent 4.9 pounds when measured with a Lyman digital trigger scale. There were a few personal observations about the pistol that may be meaningful to some. First, the magazine release was stuck upon arrival. I had to work it back and forth to get it to free up. It felt like an errant piece of metal may have been left behind during assembly. It works as it should now. I previously mentioned that the pistol was tight fitting. So much so that it is the only 1911 that I own that absolutely needs a barrel-bushing tool to dissemble. The plunger that holds the slide lock also needs the side of a small screwdriver tip to push it back to install slide lock. It protrudes a little farther than on my other pistols and the spring definitely has more tension. That will likely result in that famous 1911 scratch on the frame. This maybe not such a big thing but the grip screws are standard thread and can easily be replaced with decorative ones if wanted. So, how did it shoot at the range? My goal was to shoot 50 or so rounds, clean the pistol and then shoot more. The first two magazines failed to feed the first round. One of these magazines was the factory supplied one and the other was a Wilson Combat magazine. I dropped both magazines and reloaded them. The second attempt on both worked. I doubt that they miss fed due to loading. More likely it was simply a tight fit. The pistol then fed the next fifty rounds without an issue. I cleaned the gun and ran another fifty rounds through it. They all fed flawlessly and ejected cleanly. If it is fair to rate a firearm after only 100 rounds then the pistol would get high marks. The sights were on and needed no adjustment to hit a standard bulls eye at 25 feet. It fairs well compared to my other 1911s. The sights are better than those that came on my Rock Island, (they have replaced) but the finish and sights do not compare to the Remington R1. It runs as well as my Sig but does not seem to point as well and the Remington and the Ruger. That being written, it is better in quality, fit and finish and dependability than many other 1911s in the same price range. I am thinking that it will get lots of range time and may end up as a carry pistol, at least part time.

Long time over do you report I always wanted a 45 but we'd modest price tag and quality This one was above and beyond my expectation smooth as butter this one was above and beyond my expectation smooth as butter and who could complain about the price excellent fire him with unbelievable price tag

This one got everyones attention in the LGS. There was disbelief over the price point, especially after people looked at the construction, finish and materials used. These Metros are real sleepers and getting harder to find. Thanks Buds!

I am impressed beyond belief at the quality and fit of this gun. I carried it in a leather desantis holster for a year and the bluing stayed on it. It locks up tight. I'm a gunwright and I never felt the need to even open it up to work on the trigger. I did change the flat mainspring housing to an arched one. That's it though. If someone stamped Colt on it you'd never question it. Very accurate and it swallowed white box Winchester 230 hollow points with no trouble at all. Amazing gun. 😎
