I have been interested in this gun for a few months but couldn't find any reviews. Also, would you consider this Tisas flagship 1911?
GB can u do a comparison Metro arms 1911s American classic vs Tisas 1911s. So it would be Philippines vs Turkey
Just ordered mine! can't wait!!!
$499 from PSA
One of the best kept secrets in the industry. 1911 from Turkey. (P-35's as well.) Thanks for the share!!
I want to see a comparison of the METRO ARMS 1911s called the American classic out of the Philippines. SO it would be Philippines vs Turkey
@@TheRealZJE313 more like cast VS forged.
@@stevenkennedy4130 so how could you tell forged vs. Cast?
@@stevenkennedy4130 so who is using cast or forged?
@@TheRealZJE313 clues are in this video. ;-)
I have the Nightstalker in 10mm...LOVE IT
And the recoil spring plug can be replaced w a NH or WC part for 9 bucks❤
Looks like a very good value. Looking forward to seeing how this one shoots.
I like to remove the factory oil from guns prior to firing them. I'm sure a few boxes of ammo through a gun with the factory oil in them is fine BUT not all gun manufacturers use oil the same way on new guns. Many times the oil we see on new guns is there specifically to keep parts from rusting/oxidizing and not for proper lubrication. I find this especially true on guns shipped overseas as they may be in storage and on the water for months before we purchase them. On brand new gun I've found all sorts of odd smelling, odd colored oils sometimes combined with fine metal chips & grit from manufacturing. While it may be going overboard I field strip new guns, clean them and then oil (and grease where applicable) them properly prior to shooting them.
That's the way to do it. We run guns out of the box simply to replicate the worst-case consumer experience. If while shooting we notice that a sluggish action is to blame for problems we'll stop, explain, and properly lubricate.
@@GBGuns That makes perfect sense for the channel as the average person will probably just shoot the gun as received.
now that's a handsome gun! thank you for reviewing it. cheers yo
Tisas makes some amazing pistols at incredible price point. This is a beauty. Thanks for the review.
Just a tip that I do during reassembly. Put the spring on the guide rod and push it back against the barrel. Spring will just hang out the front of the barrel. Always done it this way and seems to never give me any trouble.
I've always done it with the spring installed. I've never seen it done this way. He does have 20 years of experience. I am newish to 1911s. More of a revolver guy.
Very cool
Its between this and the Tisas raider,I can't decide
I bought the Tisas 1911 BR 45 Duty. Excellent handgun. No complains. But I now wish I had waited for the Stalker. Very nice!
Appreciated, GB! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Why ? I don't see any significant difference, just the looks ?
@@TexasCorgiGun you need to see one in person. There are visible upgrades and improvements on the "Stalker" model.
@@v.german11b I'll take your word for it
@@TexasCorgiGun it shows just looking at the "Stalker."
@v.german11b So the improvements are on the looks like I said ? I don't see how this is better than your duty model. The sigths are nicer I guess.
I don't really need another .45 but I'm kinda liking the look and price of this lil guy.
That's exactly how I felt and why I picked it up!
You can always get it in 10mm, lol
Yes. I have been looking and wondering about this.
I just got the GI 1911A1 and it’s fricken awesome! I cannot believe they sell these for cheap! I believe I got their newer model as well because the slide says US 1911A1 doesn’t say army 🤷🏼♂️ this tisas even feeds FEDERAL HST which is fantastic! I will be getting a more modern 1911 stainless from them soon! I have no issues keeping this GI model for a bedside gun! 230 grain HST out of a full size 45 is hard to beat! I got this GI model for under 400$! There’s no machined marks on the inside of the slide! I can’t find nothing wrong with it
Interested in this but the grips remind me of temporary placeholders until your wood/pearl/G10's arrive in the mail...😄
If they had texture they'd be a win, but the shape is perfect for my hands and grip style.
Thinking same
It's a great gun. Looks awesome and runs awesome 👍
picked one up the other day for $497.xx shipped. I have the manta ray and the night stalker looks a LOT nicer for all the features on board.
I own two tisas 1911's, and both have been flawless for me coming up on 1,000 rounds apiece. It seems tisas has this 1911 thing down!! They've just released a "builder's kit" that looks like a cool option for those of us who like to tinker... This nightstalker looks pretty darn cool imo. Can't wait to see the range video.
I Agree with all replies, if a Gun ever Failed, I would never carry it as a self-defense handgun again.
Thank you for sharing this information. You produce excellent informative videos.
God bless 🙏
ooooh....I'm liking it!
I was waiting on the girsan like this to pop up used but now i think i want this one.
yea I never drop the slide with out brass in the barrel. If Mossad Ahud SAYS don't do I dont. He is the master in our real world! I am very happy with my night stalker. It is high quality, well made , and dependable. Those turks have broken the mold and they too produce a fine working dependable 1911 Night Stalker badass pistol. I am not naive or a Newbie I OWN 4 Colt 1911s and one desert eagle subcompact 1911. The Night Stalker is as badass as its name!!
I’ll take mine in 10mm with vz alien grips and stainless guide rod !
Not bad for 600 bucks ! 👍👍
That's why I couldn't resist!
Agree..!!@@GBGuns
Just picked one up for $497 shipped
Nice looking firearm. Futuristic, but stylish.
YES HE PRONOUNCES TISAŞ RIGHT!! lol
I have the px9 and the B45 1911 this is hopefully my next one. I fkn love it soo much!!!
If that night stalker had the color of the Raider I'd get it without hesitation...
This is Tisas' premium line? All forged and brand name magazine.
I watched hrfunk review their M1911A1 raider and was impressed. I think they have a premium 10mm as well.
Those grips look very nice, i would like a set.
Aside from being slick, they feel great in my hands, perfectly shaped.
They aren't actually forged.
In reality they are cast
Which is fine 😊
That’s a nice looking pistol. I’d love to have one in 10mm.
I just picked one up for 499 !
They are back in stock !
I seen that and started looking for videos lol. Can’t decide if I want to jump or not. I think I can get $500 for my Taurus 1911 and I feel this would be a huge step up compared to that.
@@Agent_Missouri
I believe that would be a good move, even though I think Taurus is very decent also, especially for how cheap they are .
Jump on it before they sell out !
Because just a week ago you couldn’t find any available.
That is a sexy 1911
Great video
I like it.
Those “hell and back” striker fired guns people won’t clean are full of mom parts. Now if they’d come up with an optics ready cut that used readily available multi footprint optics I’d be all over it.
Gotta be honest psa had a sale and I’ve wanted a 45 1911 because they are classic. So I bought one I feel like I’ll love it more then my hellcat pro
Wondering about that checkering on the front of the grip. I got my first 1911 with checkering earlier this year and I'm spoiled.
Yup! Texture on the fronstrap makes a BIG difference.
Put Richard Ramirez pic on the grips😂
I’d get the 10mm version.
I am looking into getting my first 1911 and I wanted it to be a 10mm due to black bears not sure if a 45 ACP would work or not but I was looking at getting a Tisas sds D10 5" 10mm so what would your opinion be ?
Thats a really good looking gun. $600 for a 1911 now is a great deal. I've been waiting on the Girsan 2311.
I hope Tisas makes a copy of the Sig P210.
Thank you for the video. Do you know if they’re bringing in any double stack 1911?
I don't know of any doublestacks from Tisas at the moment.
Any recommendation on a slim grip that uses the original screws?
Dropping the slide is bad? Then what do they do when firing? Amazing how much scuttlebutt makes rules.
I guess it just depends on how you were Trained?
Many of us "Old Timers" were trained, about 60 years ago, to "NEVER drop the slide on an empty 1911 ! ", so it's just the way we are.
I know that, most modern guns don't have a problem with this sort of abuse. But, I still "Wince" every time I see it done! AND I can hear "Ruff and Gruff" old Sargent Carlson LOUD AND CLEAR, "Don't you go doin' sxxt like that when I'm trainin' ya Boy!!!!"
Sorry!
Once something is "Programmed" into your brain, at age 19, YOU NEVER CAN UN-LEARN IT !
I respect that. It's like slapping up on an inserted magazine. YES, it can help things sometimes, but now I know that it causes more damage than good in every other circumstance. It makes me teeth hurt to see someone, especially a guntuber "expert" slap their magazine!
If Bill Wilson says not to do it, that's good enough for me.
Mas Ayoob says every time someone drops the slide on an empty chamber, a kitten dies. 🤣
For affordable and reliable 1911s, tisas and girsan are the best options in my opinion.
Can anyone tell the dimensions of the grips so I can swamp the aluminum ones? Its the 10 mm Night Stalker.
How does the back part of the mag well fit into your catcher’s mits? I remember in a previous video of yours saying that the full straight back tends to catch you in the palm
That does tend to happen to me, but not withi this pistol, I think it's long enough to not end up stabbing me.
@@GBGuns thanks
Thank you so much for posting. Are 70s internals a good or bad thing? I’m thinking of getting the 10mm version and kind of new to 1911’s
Some folks say you need 70s internals for a good trigger, however that also means no drop safety. I've experienced good and bad triggers of both 70s and 80s series in modern samples.
Is nightstalker makes double stack in .45acp?
Great bud thanx for not editing some stuff
Looks like a fine firearm. I would love to put a couple hundred tounds through it at my range.
I like everything but the grips. Black G10 grips would look better.
Tisas 1911 10mm Night Stalker, has anyone had an issue with ejecting a live round. This thing flat refuses to eject a live round.
How are those magazines that come with the pistol ? Decent or need to upgrade mags with this pistol
We ran them and several other makes in the range video,sorry don't remember off the top of my head
I’ve owned just about every brand 1911 from expensive to budget, and the first thing I do is get Wilson Combat mags or Tripp Cobra mags, they’re the only ones I’ll run in ANY 1911
@@the5052 I got a bad Wilson combat mag also
😊😊
I assemble the slide first on my Para P 12 Plug in and plug locked back put slide in turn plug then turn plug comes forward..... put in slide lock done. Put slide in and Unleash the Plug. Locks against the bushing Easier. Saw years ago. never had a problem. there is a video on you tube.
I agree. There's more than one way to do it and some guns are easier some ways that others.
Do they make it in 10mm?
Yes they do.
I like my night stalker, couldn't pass it up with all those goodies.
👍👊🔥
You don't dry slam because it rounds off the sear face I have seen a 45 shoot 7 Rd before you blink
❤️🔥🤙🏻🇺🇸
Literally had to use a hammer and punch on my block to get the slide lock out.
Great vid. $600 is still a bit rich for a "working man's" 1911.
It's about the threshold for anything decent, and this offers a lot of upgrades you usually don't see in this price range. I've spent timme with $400 1911s and most aren't satisfying. That painful "If I had saved for another couple of months I could have had something better".
They should bring back the ziganna L, F, K models
Even better are the
L
I
G
M
A
models
Its sad Americans cant make anything close for less than a grand. Money is tight right now. Id like to get a new 1911. And support America but they sure make it hard when you find out some companies outsource to korea and the phillipines. And still want a thousand dollars.Ive racked the slide on a couple less than 400 dollar tisas. And you can tell they are built right. You can get one of these for less than a ruger. They are making lower cost pistols with aluminum frames. Id take a lightweight commander. But still not a fan of aluminum frames. I just bought a baby rock because i like its size. After a trigger job its not bad. Now i want a fullsize. Im saving for a well made no mim parts gun. It leaves few options. Production guns made in USA are hit and miss. Im looking into smaller shops. I hate to pay 999 for a base colt. When there are a few smaller shops if you catch a sale you can get a much nicer gun. Made from trick parts. American companies are more worried about the shekels the unions and the insurances and govt bullshat. Sad times.
Thanks GB. Great job. Good info. God bless.
LETS GO BRANDON
Rock Island better step it up.
Please-Please get someone show you how to properly assemble a 1911. and what the heck is a Tishas?
😆
They should have just called it Richard ramirez
My friend just picked up the nice version of this (nighthawk custom Tri-cut) for 3900 it’d. It’s a beautiful gun
That's only 5.5x the cost of this one
Now THIS does look like a very nice gun! And,....... If I didn't have a dear, sweet Wife, who can get very (ah humm!l) "Moody" every time I Invest in more hardware, I'd order one TODAY !
Have you seen the meme floating around the internet? It says, "If your wife is angry buy a new gun. She'll still be angry, but you'll have a new gun".
I'm not endorsing this, just find it entertaining.
@@GBGuns
Well, I've been reading that our now deeply Communist government is not well pleased with those of us who, love, respect and OBAY our CONSTITUTION.
So, I keep most of my now valuable collection OUT OF SIGHT. In an "Undisclosed but highly secure" location!!! 😉
I guess that "Cheap" is not the best description for 45 pistols. There are layers or categories of cost, engineering, and perceived value. Unfortunately we have Glock to thank for the offerings today. If something like this had been around in the mid 80s there would have been no issue with purchasing something like this. To point, I came across a Tisas A1 that had the full boat customizing performed for the low price of $1800. Personally don't know if that was worth it or not. This model screams for a mill job for a red dot. I know every manufacturer does things to distinguish their offerings. What is up with slide lightening cuts? Do they really serve a purpose? The cool kids i guess would do press checks. You pointed out the weight difference as not significant. Have you found any information on the grade of Steel in this non MIM parts example? One would assume some sort of Carbon and assume no way on a Stainless variant. Cerakote will wear in or can be massaged to desired slickness. The thing on this model, is the front strap checkering offered at this price point. Money well spent or Bubba Smithing would make that trigger much better. A trigger job and Red Dot might break the barrier for a sub $1k 1911. I've seen this model below the $600 dollar mark on sale.
That's what sold me on this pistol. Even if the trigger was unacceptable, aftermarket triggers are cheap enough that this pistol is still a deal. The cerakote does need some wear on the rails before this gun will be smooth though.
Yeah, I appreciate that people have groceries to buy and budgets to mind but if you can afford to buy a $600 Turkish 1911 today, you can afford to buy a $1000 Colt a month from now.
Not knocking Tisas or even jumping on the "Made in America" wagon, but if you buy a 1911 (or really any other firearm) try and consider the legacy factor.
My favorite guns in the safe aren't the ones that were the "best guns for the money." The favorites are the ones that represent the commitment I made when I acquired them, either through hard work and saving or by inheritance.
Sorry, but you kids will NEVER say "yeah, I love this old Tisas that dad used to shoot."
Again, if you can afford to buy a $600 Tisas today, you can probably afford a Colt or DW a month or so from now.
But unlike a Colt, a Tisas won't cut you if you run your fingers over the ejection port and slide edges.
Haha. Probably😆
Best to think of it as a rite of passage.
Yes, this 1911 looks tempting and Tisas does know what they're doing, however...it's still not a pride of ownership gun.
The problem is that it's price is inching closer to that boundary between the "beater" 1911s I love to shoot and the nice ones I only bring out occasionally.
At above $600, one might just as well save for a legacy investment 1911, heck $1000 to $1100 will get you a lower-end Bul Armory.
Love your videos. But you field stripping/reassembling 1911s is painful to watch and makes my heart hurt.
I follow the manual. There's more than one way to do a 1911.
Looks a lot like t.c.p.
$600 just 7 months ago. Inflation really is a bitchkitty, going for over $950 now!
Check the pinned comment, we found it for less
Check buds gun shop, they’re a lot cheaper, 532
Now in 2023 its just north of 7 hundred after taxes new 9mm just over 6 hundred after taxes new 45 acp and north of 7 hundred for all you bear hunters out there. For all that gun. Wow 😲 It's a great day to be an American.
Looks like they copied Devil Dog arms 1911s
Those grips are horrible
What was your experience with them?
@@GBGuns They just look slippery and UGLY a AF
As cool as this is this is a range toy 😔
I doubt you fellow man would back you (in a jury) for shooting someone with a night stalker. Our justice system is weird.
Just picked up mine today from my local gun store I think this a amazing piece of work can’t wait to break it in starting tommorow 🫡
I like everything but the grips. Black G10 grips would look better.
