Palmetto State Armory Stainless Two-tone Premium 1911 Gun Review

Palmetto State Armory is best known for their reasonably priced AR-15s, AK-47s and of course their popular build kits for said rifles. However a few years ago they shifted gears and began offering a US-made M1911-A1 pistol.

The M1911-A1 is one of our favorite pistols and we have owned at least a dozen over the years. It was the pistol that we cut our teeth on as a 17-year-old Marine and one we carried for almost two decades. We may not carry one outside of Memorial Day, Independence Day or Veteran's Day (when we pack a US Military issued Colt 1911 made in 1917); but we still enjoy shooting and collecting this pistol. 

The PSA Stainless Two-tone Premium is a full size .45 ACP Government model with a 5″ barrel. It is called the Premium because of the tight tolerances and hand fitting of parts in this pistol.
