I love this 1911. I have put thousands of rounds through it. Seems to be a very reliable and an accurate shooter. Very fun!

Product came as advertised. The pistol runs very well with different makes of magazines, even the cheap mags run well. The process with Bud’s was painless and easy.

I bought this 1911 as an after thought because I already have several other 1911's including a nice safe queen made by an illustrious manufacturer whose name will go un-named. I purchased an RI full size at the same time I purchased this ATI. I knew what to expect from the RI since I already owned one - just a plain jane 1911 that works and is reasonably accurate. Both my RI's handle what ever ammo I feed them. This ATI is a beast of a different flavor. It basically shocked me to pay a very very low price and get a weapon that does everything I ask of it. Now it was a bit finicky when it comes to ammo. It did not care for HPs but a little polishing in the right places and no worries. It takes the old Colt 7 round mags as well as the newer 8 round with equal enthusiasm. It handles ball ammo of every weight I have thrown through it with ease, 165, 185, 200, 230, and some home grown 260s. Now here is the stunner. I have 6 - 1911's from the ATI to a very expensive piece that never sees the light of day. My ATI outshoots all of them, even in it's shorter length. Plain and simple. It outshoots my $500 RIs, my Ruger, my Springfield 1911 (including 2 Springfield XD's, 4 inch and 5 inch) and the $2000 queen. It is hands down, a much easier gun to handle and shoot than these others mentioned. Granted, I smoothed out some rough edges but I did the same thing with my Springfield. Now, if I were dollar conscious (and I am), I would certainly give this all steel .45 a go. It's weight definitely aides in the recoil department particularly since it is a bit shorter, trigger is decent (although just a bit of polishing makes it much smoother) and the sight picture is your standard 1911. I would put my ATI up against just about any other ACP I have shot. Maybe I got the only "winner" out there but I doubt it. I like it. I carry it in an El Paso belt holster and in a less expensive UTG shoulder rig. Seems at home in either one. For the money, it is a good, all around service weapon you don't have to worry about getting scratched or dinged. The best part for me is that IT HAS NEVER FAILED TO FIRE for me - not once in several thousand rounds. NOT ONCE with a host of different manufacturers from the cheapest to the good stuff, steel cases or brass. The weapon goes bang every time I pull the trigger. It simply works........but it really does like hard ball best.

Pretty much flawless. Very well fitted. Put over 1000 rounds of round nose thru this with wilson mags and it never once even hiccuped. Steal for the money, would recommend.

Heavy... Over 300 rounds through it and not a single problem. Aesthetically its a very nice standard 1911. But...its HEAVY.

Always Satisfied with Bud's service and pricing. Want to know what an item is worth - I always check what Bud lists it for first. The ATI is a great 1911 for the price. It shoots better than ANY of the military 1911's I used to qualify with - and it comes with better sights! Shoots nice tight groups - no malfunctions. Very pleased.

With all my buying experiences through Bud's, the item was delivered five days after they received the money order. The item was in great shape and operates great. I'll keep buying from Bud's until the government forbids it.

flawless performance would recommend for a starter 1911 for the price point it's a good quality handgun !!

The Colt 1911 feel and fire without crushing your wallet. I bought this hand gun for my son, since he's studying criminal justice in college, and he talk about a 1911 for his first hand gun. He talked about a desert eagle and I said that'll be your own purchase, but he is very happy with this model. He's also happy with the performance and handling. Again, Buds was great on the layaway and shipping. As I said before...repeat customer here. T h.g.h asks, Buds.

Great gun for the price, accurate out of the box and reliable. Have put about 500 rounds through and is still dependable, once I upgraded the mag

GOOD GUN FOR THE PRICE. SIGHTS ARE ALL BLACK (FRONT AND REAR), DIFFICULT TO SEE AND ACQUIRE FAST, BUT THE GUN IS VERY ACCURATE IF YOU DO YOUR PART.

My ATI Commander is excellent reproduction of the GI firearm, cleaned it thoroughly and oiled it up and it shot flawlessly 230 grain ball ammo which is all I'm ever going to shoot with it, feels great in the hand, and I couldn't be more happy with it. Buds Gun Shop had it to me in 5 working days excellent customer service will be back thank you!
