Keep in mind that the standard 1911 was built around firing the 230 grain full metal jacket .45 ACP round that John M. Browning develoiped. The 1911 and the 230 gr. FMJ ..45 ACP are designed to work together as a system and uses a controlled round feed mechanism. It's intended to run with that ammo specifically, and different ammo types are not guaranteed to run as reliably without making certain modifications which can involve the magazine as well as the barrel throat and ramp.
Same goes for every firearm, barrel twist also is specific to bullet grain and the charge behind it. That's why we must train with and try different ammunition and run what works reliably. Great video. Just bought the sub compact.
The original 1911 with the standard sights were not designed for precise distance shooting. It was intended to be an effective close quarters combat, point and shoot, weapon you could rely on to stop an enemy combatant.
Just run FMJ. No problem worries, will leave a half inch size hole. Don’t have to worry about hollow point not opening or feeding. Cheaper to shoot.Liberal DA won’t use ammo against you in court. hollow point is illegal in New Jersey. Think about it ball ammo .45 does almost what 9mm hollow will do , so why don’t you avoid possible problems , save some money, and have more ammo ? Just keep ball ammo for it. jMB designed it that way anyway.
Yeah. I agree. 230gr ball is fine and less issue in a 1911 than hollows. Every 1911 I’ve had has been finicky with HP ammunition, so I have always used ball for those.
The original 1911 was not designed for hollopoint ammo but new manufacturers can remedy that by tweaking the feed ramp.....have a Khar 1911 that loves hollopoint....no problem shooting them....exact replica to the WW2 1911 in all forms, they even left the ejection port alone......except its a series 80.....has the safety mechanism....I have nothing against FMJ except that in an urban setting.....it may exit the bad guy, and enter an innocent guy.....hollow points midigate that problem....
1. Get good magazines. 2. Clean weapon well. 3. Deburring and polishing a feed ramp is very simple. 4. And yes, a break in period is always advisable...
Love my Tisas 1911 so much I bought a second one ! I replaced the plastic grips with Tisas factory walnut grips available on their website. $20. What a steal for walnut grips! Shipping was fast too! Great company to deal with.
My Tisas came with both sets of grips in the box. I know the plastic ones are supposed to be representative of the 1911A1 grips but I put the wood ones on, too. I love this handgun. I've got several much more expensive 1911s but this is rapidly becoming my favorite.
My Tisas 1911A1 has had no problems with 230 grain, 200 grain, and 180 grain semi wad cutters all cast bullets akso 200 grain Berry plates bullets. Feed the gun what it likes and have a harmonious ending.
Mine could definitely use an improved foresight! But, all things considered, it's a far more reliable personal defense gun than my Ruger .380 Security pistol with its 50% feed failure rate.
About the hollow point misfeeds. Tisas does not make the magazines they include with their 1911s. They buy them from the aftermarket and package them with their firearms. Some are made by Checkmate, some are Mec-Gar, and some aren't visibly branded. Needless to say, Tisas buys mags to meet a price point that keeps the final retail price of the firearm kit very low compared to others. In my experience, the Mec-Gars are the least reliable with ammo other than FMJ military ball. The Checkmates are better, but in my experience, the Tisas pistols run best with Chip McCormick mags. Their feed lips are more resilient, and they hold the top round at a slightly steeper angle, preventing hollow point and flat-nose rounds from diving into the feed ramp. Tisas 1911 are fabulously good guns for the price, so it shouldn't hurt too badly to buy a couple premium magazines to get the most out of your small cash investment.
Tisas is the only 1911 manufacturer that I know of that is also licensed to make the Ed Brown Bobtail cut on some of their models. That leads me to believe that they may be making the frames and slides for Ed Brown as well. Do yourself a favor, buy a Tisas and rebuild it with a 15 dollar Wilson Combat spring rebuild kit. You won't regret it.
Ungratefull, I have heard a lot of positive things about the Tisa, this one is a loaner for my video, but I am gonna buy one soon. Thank you for the tip man, I will do exactly that.
First thing, you don't need to use hollow points, I have Metro, RIAs , and Tisas and they were all stock G.I., but after dressing them up they all shoot like high end pistols, very accurate...
Considering Ed Brown has long been an OEM manufacturer for other custom 1911 companies, there is zero chance Tisas is making anything for Ed Brown Products.
Ive owned a few of the budget 1911’s. The best budget one ive had so far was a rock island. The ones ive had that were more of this military style that had problems feeding different types of ammo were usually fixed with a little polishing on the feed ramp and the top of the chamber. Its a whole lot cheaper than running a ton of rounds to break it in and it cycles better anyway. Good video. Im a big fan of helping people find reliable budget firearms to protect themselves and their families, without having to think they have to try and rely on a hipoint.
Thank you for the tip, I need to learn more about the polishing technique and start doing that. I’ve had several mention that t, so it must be an effective fix.
Love my Tisas. It really was everything I wanted out of it. Put on some old grips from a Remington rand and it looks too proper. Not a single issue with the Wilson mags I bought they’re amazing. The factory mags had very minor trouble on the final round to cycle, but still worked somewhat decent. Incredible gun for the price, up the mags though.
Like you the only issue I had was with one of the two mags. I knew that mag was defective though since it’s an 8 rounder that would only load 7, so something was off. Last round failure to feed. 4 out of the last 150 rounds that happened, so it’s not a constant problem and only on that one mag. Definitely replace mags. I’m personally thinking about dropping a Wilson combat bullet proof extractor in also. Otherwise, the Tisas Duty has surpassed my expectations. Rekindled my love for 1911s. Don’t regret getting one at all.
Love your enthusiasm. I’ve got 2 of those Tisas .45’s. Loveshooting them! I load my own so can afford to shoot. I pick up lead from the berm when I can and make my own powder coat bullets too. Even picked up a couple of 9mm’s and really enjoy shooting both the .45 acp and 9mm. 1911’s are just plain fun.
Nice video man first time running across your stuff and you almost remind me of my pops the way he stresses peak reliability and making sure it works the way it should
I've got 3 Tisas, a Rock Island, and a Springfield 1911. I've been fortunate to have no failures with any of them, regardless of the ammo I put through them. Yes, I do shoot a lot of 230 FMJ out of them at the range, I put 1000+ rounds through any pistol I may choose to carry. I also shoot at least 3 boxes of whatever hollow point carry ammo I want to use. I keep my guns meticulously clean, and properly lubricated, and they've always worked without fail. I'm shopping for another Tisas.
Dont hesitate, the prices are creeping up. I have 2 Tisas 45 cal and they perform flawlessly. I have one 9mm Tisas and it had a bad extractor. I replaced it with a Wilson Combat. Zero failures after hundreds of rounds.
Just came across your channel, looking to get a budget 1911. Not hearing much at all against tisas, other then not being American made. But when I get one, will be American protection. 😊 subscribed. Good to see an east tn boy out there doing what he loves. From maryville, TN. Keep up the good work.
My Tisas US Army model needed a 650 round break in before it ran 100% reliability. Now I’ve got 2,000 rounds through it and I haven’t had a single malfunction in the last 1,350 rounds. All of the malfunctions that I had in the first 650 rounds were failure to feed the last round. It’s also important to note that I’ve only shot 230 grain hardball through this weapon.
Thank you Chris for the data, myself and I am sure others can use this. I truly love the Tisa, best bang for the Buck during this stressed economy. Thank you watching and commenting bro!
@@n721sw I’ve learned to just shoot and carry FMJ ball in my 1911s. I’ve never had any luck with hollow points. The 1911 was designed to shoot 230 grain hardball. The ammo is cheaper and these weapons are extremely reliable when maintained as long as you stick with round nose FMJ. I really do enjoy your content. You are genuine, down to earth and I respect your service as an LEO.
@@christophermead9800 Chris, I want to say a big thank you for those kind words! It is nice to know that some viewers like what I try to bring to the gun community and hearing positive feedback like this makes me want to do more, thank you again Chris, and stay safe man, this year could get a bit crazy. Stay strapped man.
Hello fellow Appalachian.I'm really liking my Tisas 1911 pistols.They just keep working well with ball ammo.I have the Carry model in 45 & the Duty model in 9mm.I bought the 9mm because ammo is much cheaper & I do love the 1911 platform.New subscriber here.
Hey man, thank you for the reply and the sub! This Tisas was a loaner, but I am definitely buying one for myself soon. I haven't thought about going the 9mm route for economy, you really caught my attention with that! I live near Knoxville, I love the mountains!
@@n721sw You're almost close,I've been to Knoxville a few times,and if you do get a Tisas,their American importer SDS is located in Knoxville.I'm about 30 minutes north of Bristol uo I-81 in Va.it's always good to run across someone not to far from home.
I put surplus US GI grips on my Tisas. The same grips you have on your Remington Rand. 1,700 rounds through it, last malfunction was at about 600 rounds. I never tried hollow points in mine though.
People will blame either the weapon or the ammo when they have a malfunction. In the case of this pistol based on the us army during ww2, this pistol was designed for ball ammo, if you use hollow points, wad cutter and so on, there will be malfunctions. This pistol is modeled after a pistol of ww2 and you must use that ammo of that error, anything else may or may not work as good, it's like having a electric device that's calling for 9v, but you use 12v to operate it, it may work but not efficiently. If this weapon calls for ball ammo, then use ball ammo, cause other types of ammo will be a question mark, and I'm sure the ball ammo of ww2 have laid a lot of enemy soldiers to rest.
Good advice man. I'm a 1911 45 fan. Sorry to hear about your adversities. As a Christian believer, always remember whenever it seems like the ol' devil is trying his darndest to get you, it's only because he doesn't have you. Keep looking up. Dale
I inherited my 1911 from my grandfather who used his in WW1. I have tried everything from 185 hollow point to 250 grain cast lead. It fed everything. I don’t shot it much because it is close to 100 years old but I am going to buy one of the Tisis 1911’s because I love this gun. If the Tisis is as accurate as my old original it can still put holes in the middle of a silhouette at 15 yards.
Mark, that is awesome! I would love to have a 1911 like that especially with that history. You have something special for sure. Thank you for the comment. I am uploading a new video right now of my Tisas v my new Staccato 2011, I had got a big surprise. You should make a video of that 1911 you have, I’d love to see it!
Tisas is a Turkish company so it’s pronounced Tee-sahs. (Not dogging you, just trying to be helpful.) In my experience, GI-pattern 1911s are inconsistent with hollow points. Most of them can find a brand/design they feed consistently, but some of them won’t. This isn’t surprising since hollow points weren’t even a consideration when the 1911 was designed. There’s probably some hollow point it will feed, and even if there isn’t, .45 ACP ball is a highly effective round. I’d rather have one with better sights and a modern feed ramp, but I wouldn’t feel screwed if someone handed me this and 100 rounds of ball ammo when SHTF.
I’ve got the same model and it’s actually fairly combat accurate, especially for those period correct sights. For hollowpoints, pick a 230g with a bullet whose profile more closely resembles that of ball ammo. Hyrda Shok does that, for instance. Enjoy the Tisas. The Tanker and Raider are also great pistols from Tisas. The Carry model is another. BTW that suppressor at about the 10:40 mark was really impressive. Silenced everything. 😂
Try Bulldog ammo....I don't think it's made anymore....but you can still find it at gunshows.....it is an all silver colored round and is jacketed....in a way....does not have a hollow cavity....but has a gell like compound inside....that mushrooms on impact....turning it into an ashtray.....but it feeds like a FMJ.....that's what I use in my tanker and my Turkish Hi Power P1....
Looks just like my Springfield Armory 1911 A1 that I got back in 1990 for $365. It ran 230gr FMJ all day, could should lead bullets to save its life. After fiddling with the ramp and loads I finally got it working ok.
Got one a few years back for about $350. It's not the "Army" one, which hadn't come out yet, and it has the "A2" setup. It is one solid and reliable shooter, and is my first foray into the 1911 world, despite my having been a shooting enthusiast since 1986. An all-steel 1911 that shoots and shoots for $350? What's not to love?
My Tisas zig m1911 didn't like hollow points until a shot about 200 rounds of ball now it shoots it just fine. I haven't tried hollow points in my us army 1911a1 yet.
Hey Bill, thank you for the reply and data point! Please let us know what hollow point ammo that you have had success with, I would love to show the viewers some more real world data. Thank you man for watching, God Bless!
I had a officer model I wore it out the best gun in the world believe me its the best. 26 year navy vet sends this. Try trx incepter it wont jam.Better than hollow points.
The big reason to run hollow points is to prevent over penetration We are responsible for every round fired. In urban or suburban settings, that's something to be concerned about. My old Auto Ordannce 1911A1 runs HPs well after it was polished up. My SIG 1911 ran them right out of the box.
I have the same Tisas M1911A1 .45ACP. The ONLY ammo I have had issue with was 1776 brand composite bullet. I had 5 of 50 rounds BREAK while feeding and jam the broken bullet in the chamber. JUST because I can, I mirror polished the feed ramp and chamfered it to provide a smoother edge. That 1776 ammo? I hand loaded them one at a time to finish it off. It is a companion piece for my CMP acquired service grade 1943 Remington Rand with a Colt National Match Hard Slide and barrel from a USAF Marksmanship contract. It is an excellent piece of military history. I enjoy that Tisas as much as the vintage 1911. MSgt USAF ret '73-'95. I served as Security Policeman, Armorer. Flight Operations and
Thank you bracer for the great comment. I too have a Remington Rand 1945 1911 from the CMP, it appears all matching, no idea of it’s history, but my prized firearm in my collection. I was a KC -10A crew chief in the USAF from 1990-1994, good times! Stationed at Barksdale, many many TDY trips around the world. Miss those days. Thank you for watching and nice to meet you.
A company called EGW makes a high shelf mag release that seats the mag about .020 higher and it lets the round land higher on the feed ramp and that cured my hollow point problems.
let me be clear...that pistol will shoot anything and everything BUT make sure you buy good magazines for it...Wilson Combat mags is what I run mine with...boy, sweet shooter !
It looked like the slide stop engaged on both of those malfunctions? Either the plunger and spring need replacing or you might be bumping it up under the heavier recoil. Just a thought. I like your vids. Subbed I love LOVE good .45 1911s. I EDC an Ed Brown Kobra Carry and shoot Defensive Pistol Competitions with a Wilson Combat. But I've been thinking about getting a Tisas for a beater/truck gun. Depression IS a real thing. And taking things one day at a time and looking for the positive really does work. I wake up every morning and decide that today is going to be a good day. It helps set the mood for the whole day. 👍
Good review overall. These pistols are getting great reviews across the board, especially at the price point. My only negative and it’s pretty minor, take a listen yourself at how often you say “guys”. I will probably purchase one of these, I have a couple of 1911’s an Sig officer size, and a Colt, I sincerely love the 1911 platform.
I've heard and seen iffy performance out of the sierra jhp in 9mm. I'm running 124g nukes jhp by unlimited ammo in my 9s and I shoot liberty defense 90g jhp 40 sw. My absolute favorite ammo it's $2 a round though so I don't shoot it. It's carry ammo only.
Good stuff man, just make sure to put at least a couple of mags through it with the new HP, I know, it's expensive, but definitely worth it to make sure it runs.
In 1924, a few modifications to the M1911 were in place to make it the M1911A1. One of those changes was an arched mainspring housing, which your pistol has. I prefer an arched mainspring housing to the flat mainspring housing, as it feels better in my hand. I apologize if I am being persnickety.
I have read that hollow point ammo in .45 often doesn’t penetrate deep enough if it expands because of the low velocity and large diameter. The combat record of the FMJ ammunition is pretty awesome or we would not still be buying these.
Thank you for that! I literally just bought a box of 20 rds of Hornady Critical Duty 220g for $34.99. It has a pointy tip that I thought may feed better, looks like I picked the right one, I gotta go try it, thanks again!
Great video my friend, mine just went back for warranty work nothing but failures right of the box very disappointing mine is the 9mm duty, plus customer service sucks it take almost a month of emails back and forth before they send me the label to send them the gun, hopefully they fixed,nex time I save my money and buy something from a better manufacturer with better customer service.
Wow, thank you for that feedback, sorry to hear that you had that happen. I am curious how the warranty works out, please come back and let us know. Thank you!
I'll bet your thumb safety is a little mushy. That one jam you had on the hollow point, did not look like a feed jam. It looked as though your slide stop popped up, and locked the slide back. This is due to a weak plunger spring. Change out your plunger spring for a Wolf. This will tighten up your thumb safety and also stop your slide stop from popping up on a partial mag.
I have a Tisas 1911A1 that I improve with a GI replacement slide. I replaced the hammer, AMH, thumb safety ans slide stop with parts that are more WWII in appearance. I had my gunsmith refinish it to look more like the WWII finish. What I ended up with is a more period correct WWII 1911A1 than what Tisas began with. Auto Ordinance makes a 1911A1 that's close but its a series 80 aks has a lowered ejection port. Unless you wanna blow your wad on a Colt original or reissue 1911A1 buy a Tisas and do what I did.
It appeared to me that the jam accord on the fifth bullet both times. Curious if you did this test more if it would always be on the 5th bullet. Maybe just coincidence.
First one of these Tisas's I have seen that malfunctioned. That being said the 1911 was not designed to shoot hollow points however After beveling and polishing the ramp and throat all of my 1911's they will shoot anything. If you shoot a bunch of ball ammo then switch to hollow point make SURE the ramp is not lead fouled before doing so on a factory stock 1911. I don't own or carry anything but 1911's, I even have one that is 100 +- years old and all the numbers match on it, even the main spring housing is numbered...
The Tisas guns are superior, not using any cast metal parts ("Metal injection molded" or MIM) and instead use machined steel parts, which were made from bar stock or forgings, and which are hardened before machining, making them more dimensionally accurate and consistent.
Thanks for the comment, it’s been awesome so far, I keep hearing great things about Tisas! I do hear that one needs to upgrade mags, that’s my first thing I am gonna do. I want to upgrade the trigger as well, it would be neat to see how much I could improve an already good platform.
IM FROM THE ROANOKE AREA IN Va. brother. Really like your video & LOVE THE GUN!! I ALSO LOVE OUR BEAUTIFUL BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS!!!!😃~ MOUNTAINS & GUNS!! LOVEUM ALL BROTHERMAN!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BROTHER, WANT TA SEE MORE!!!!~~ THANKS~~ Howard M.~~4/5/2024😊🙃😍👍👍👍👍🤟😃
Haha, I know man. It’s after all, it’s the history that I love. We are spoiled today with the fancy night sites and what not that we have. I love the 1911, it’s still around for a reason! Bc it’s damn good!
HEY !!!!!! Those "sights" beat the Germans !!!!! LOL 🙂 I have a Tisas Tanker(9mm) and a B9R Carry that chunk anything and everything through them. great pistols !!!!
Ha! Yes they did! So thankful that I am not speaking German! I was just poking fun. But, they were terrible considering today nice 3 dot night sites! Tisas is an awesome pistol! Very well made.
Hi Rich, I think your referring to a good buffing and polishing of the feed ramp, I agree! But I thought this Tisa already had it down at the factory. Please explain if I am missing something. Thanks!
@n721sw You also half to Polish the slide face where the cartridge slides up into the ejector there is a lot of drag there. Most people forget this very important spot when they ease up the action. I'm speaking of the face where the firing Pin the Protutes.
I got a Taurus 1911 in 45acp. I paid $500 for this thing. This thing spits out EVERYTHING without issue. Different brands of ball. Different brands of hollow points. It hasn't had one issue. Heck, all my Glocks have had more issues. My Sigs have had issues. Even my Rugers. But not this guy. Its mind boggling. Anyway...Jesus Christ is Lord regardless if you believe it or not. And....Repent and believe in the gospel. God bless.😁
A big Amen Brother! You're spitting the truth about the Lord! I was in the gun store yesterday and seen the Taurus 1911's, they looked good, I may have to get one and do a video review on one. If you lived near Knoxville TN, I could borrow yours 😅
@@n721sw Its not me, its Him. He gets ALL the glory. I'm just a vessel. That is all.🙏 Yeah, I cant find many videos on them unfortunately. When I was looking at it to buy it, I was looking at the one without the rail, but the woman said, "I'll get you a new one from the back." When she brought it out it had the rail, but I was too excited to even notice. I finally realized it when I got home and I was devastated. I wanted one shaped like your Tisas since it was going to be my first 1911. But I ended up putting an Olight Valkerie on it and now im in love. And I'd totally let you do a video on it, but I'm in Dallas, Tx.😕 I don't know how that would work.
How many times do you have to say guys ? It is pronounced Ti sas the i comes before the A. I have had several Tisas 1911s and they all worked perfectly.
I like your Crucifix. You Tube took away my Like Button . Keep up to good videos. I've lost 4 friends in the last 4 years so I know how you feel. Just Pray and put it in God's Hands.
Thank you for the kind words! Sorry about your friends. I lost my best friend in 2020, and had to end a long term relationship in 22, lost my elderly mother last year. And lost all three of my little dogs over a short time. Been a rough few years. But yes! Pray and put your trust in God. Thank you for the comment!
Hey, thank you for the comment, yup, it’s an awesome pistol! I am trying to find the Tanker version in stock locally, no luck yet. Tisas is good stuff!
I run the expensive +p hp and the cheap stuff first time out. Life has been tough. We are tougher. Wanting to start my own content soon. I think I know you. 😅
The United States never signed the Geneva Convention. However, it has consistently followed the Convention's regulations... on a strictly voluntary basis!
Howdy, I do most of my pistol videos at 20 feet, I try and keep it standard, so I can go back and compare different pistols, and at that particular place, I don’t have a lot of room.
Thanks, I had another comment about that. I’m gonna do another video with it and try hollow point ammo, my polish the feed, I try and say it correctly.
Tisas is good stuff, I’m trying to spread the word. I borrowed a friends Tisas to do a video review and I liked it so much, I went and bought my own and did another video. I have a $550 Springfield 1911, this Tisas is the same quality or better for way less $. Thank you for watching and replying usualsuspect.
Maybe it would be helpful to do a bit of research and find out how to correctly pronounce, more or less, the name of the gun manufacturer. It is really not so hard and adds to the reviewer and the review credibility.
Full length guide rods require a tool for take down. No tool is required for GI guide rods. In around 45 years shooting 1911's extensively, never experienced kinked recoil springs. Nor did I find improved accuracy,even with match grade pistols. Full length guide rods are a waste of $$$ and they require finding a paper clip. Try finding one out in the boondocks.
Thanks
Scott!!! Thank you brother!!! ❤
I carried a 1911 in Viet Nam, trust me….the ball ammo did the job
Welcome home, sir. My grandfather served in Vietnam
Keep in mind that the standard 1911 was built around firing the 230 grain full metal jacket .45 ACP round that John M. Browning develoiped. The 1911 and the 230 gr. FMJ ..45 ACP are designed to work together as a system and uses a controlled round feed mechanism. It's intended to run with that ammo specifically, and different ammo types are not guaranteed to run as reliably without making certain modifications which can involve the magazine as well as the barrel throat and ramp.
Thank you for that info, I didn’t know. Makes sense.
Same goes for every firearm, barrel twist also is specific to bullet grain and the charge behind it. That's why we must train with and try different ammunition and run what works reliably. Great video. Just bought the sub compact.
@joshuacollier9139 Thanks for watching! It’s an awesome 1911
The original 1911 with the standard sights were not designed for precise distance shooting. It was intended to be an effective close quarters combat, point and shoot, weapon you could rely on to stop an enemy combatant.
Just run FMJ. No problem worries, will leave a half inch size hole. Don’t have to worry about hollow point not opening or feeding. Cheaper to shoot.Liberal DA won’t use ammo against you in court. hollow point is illegal in New Jersey. Think about it ball ammo .45 does almost what 9mm hollow will do , so why don’t you avoid possible problems , save some money, and have more ammo ? Just keep ball ammo for it. jMB designed it that way anyway.
Underrated comment 🔥
Yeah. I agree. 230gr ball is fine and less issue in a 1911 than hollows.
Every 1911 I’ve had has been finicky with HP ammunition, so I have always used ball for those.

It makes holes. Holes are bad.
Damn good reply!
1. Get good magazines.
2. Clean weapon well.
3. Deburring and polishing a feed ramp is very simple.
4. And yes, a break in period is always advisable...
Love my Tisas 1911 so much I bought a second one ! I replaced the plastic grips with Tisas factory walnut grips available on their website. $20. What a steal for walnut grips! Shipping was fast too! Great company to deal with.
My Tisas came with both sets of grips in the box. I know the plastic ones are supposed to be representative of the 1911A1 grips but I put the wood ones on, too. I love this handgun. I've got several much more expensive 1911s but this is rapidly becoming my favorite.
My Tisas 1911A1 has had no problems with 230 grain, 200 grain, and 180 grain semi wad cutters all cast bullets akso 200 grain Berry plates bullets.
Feed the gun what it likes and have a harmonious ending.
I love my Tisas,1911 Duty
Ihave 4 Tisas 1911's so far, great price, great quality, great gun to shoot!! LOVE THEM!
Mine could definitely use an improved foresight! But, all things considered, it's a far more reliable personal defense gun than my Ruger .380 Security pistol with its 50% feed failure rate.
Hello, do you have one in 9mm ? How does it run ? Thanks from France ?
About the hollow point misfeeds. Tisas does not make the magazines they include with their 1911s. They buy them from the aftermarket and package them with their firearms. Some are made by Checkmate, some are Mec-Gar, and some aren't visibly branded. Needless to say, Tisas buys mags to meet a price point that keeps the final retail price of the firearm kit very low compared to others. In my experience, the Mec-Gars are the least reliable with ammo other than FMJ military ball. The Checkmates are better, but in my experience, the Tisas pistols run best with Chip McCormick mags. Their feed lips are more resilient, and they hold the top round at a slightly steeper angle, preventing hollow point and flat-nose rounds from diving into the feed ramp. Tisas 1911 are fabulously good guns for the price, so it shouldn't hurt too badly to buy a couple premium magazines to get the most out of your small cash investment.
Hey, thank you for the informative reply!
Tisas is the only 1911 manufacturer that I know of that is also licensed to make the Ed Brown Bobtail cut on some of their models. That leads me to believe that they may be making the frames and slides for Ed Brown as well. Do yourself a favor, buy a Tisas and rebuild it with a 15 dollar Wilson Combat spring rebuild kit. You won't regret it.
Ungratefull, I have heard a lot of positive things about the Tisa, this one is a loaner for my video, but I am gonna buy one soon. Thank you for the tip man, I will do exactly that.
I prefer the Tripp Super 7 springs.
First thing, you don't need to use hollow points, I have Metro, RIAs , and Tisas and they were all stock G.I., but after dressing them up they all shoot like high end pistols, very accurate...
Ed Brown pistols are in no way, remotely touched by any foreign company.
Considering Ed Brown has long been an OEM manufacturer for other custom 1911 companies, there is zero chance Tisas is making anything for Ed Brown Products.
I earned two medals with those sights. Buck up, Big Boy.
Hell yeah. They might be small, but they’re not terrible sights to be honest. Dude has been spoiled by giant sights on all the modern guns.
There's a later version of this gun out. It has an original sized ejector port, no mag well bevel, and no markings on the slide. You MUST have one!
I have to check into that!
Ive owned a few of the budget 1911’s. The best budget one ive had so far was a rock island. The ones ive had that were more of this military style that had problems feeding different types of ammo were usually fixed with a little polishing on the feed ramp and the top of the chamber. Its a whole lot cheaper than running a ton of rounds to break it in and it cycles better anyway.
Good video. Im a big fan of helping people find reliable budget firearms to protect themselves and their families, without having to think they have to try and rely on a hipoint.
Thank you for the tip, I need to learn more about the polishing technique and start doing that. I’ve had several mention that t, so it must be an effective fix.
Love my Tisas. It really was everything I wanted out of it. Put on some old grips from a Remington rand and it looks too proper. Not a single issue with the Wilson mags I bought they’re amazing. The factory mags had very minor trouble on the final round to cycle, but still worked somewhat decent. Incredible gun for the price, up the mags though.
Like you the only issue I had was with one of the two mags. I knew that mag was defective though since it’s an 8 rounder that would only load 7, so something was off. Last round failure to feed. 4 out of the last 150 rounds that happened, so it’s not a constant problem and only on that one mag. Definitely replace mags. I’m personally thinking about dropping a Wilson combat bullet proof extractor in also. Otherwise, the Tisas Duty has surpassed my expectations. Rekindled my love for 1911s. Don’t regret getting one at all.
Love your enthusiasm. I’ve got 2 of those Tisas .45’s. Loveshooting them! I load my own so can afford to shoot. I pick up lead from the berm when I can and make my own powder coat bullets too. Even picked up a couple of 9mm’s and really enjoy shooting both the .45 acp and 9mm. 1911’s are just plain fun.
Thanks for the comment! Love the reloading, and the 9mm is a cheaper way to shoot the 1911.
Nice video man first time running across your stuff and you almost remind me of my pops the way he stresses peak reliability and making sure it works the way it should
Hey man, thanks for the nice words and thank you for watching!
I've got 3 Tisas, a Rock Island, and a Springfield 1911. I've been fortunate to have no failures with any of them, regardless of the ammo I put through them. Yes, I do shoot a lot of 230 FMJ out of them at the range, I put 1000+ rounds through any pistol I may choose to carry. I also shoot at least 3 boxes of whatever hollow point carry ammo I want to use. I keep my guns meticulously clean, and properly lubricated, and they've always worked without fail. I'm shopping for another Tisas.
Heck yea Jim! That is how to do it, thank you for the comment! I also have a Springfield, love it!
Good review; I am considering purchasing one of these and I appreciate the review.
Dont hesitate, the prices are creeping up. I have 2 Tisas 45 cal and they perform flawlessly. I have one 9mm Tisas and it had a bad extractor. I replaced it with a Wilson Combat. Zero failures after hundreds of rounds.
Just came across your channel, looking to get a budget 1911. Not hearing much at all against tisas, other then not being American made. But when I get one, will be American protection. 😊 subscribed. Good to see an east tn boy out there doing what he loves. From maryville, TN. Keep up the good work.
Hey thanks for that! I appreciate the sub, I am here in Oneida, glad to have you onboard!

Remember 1911 pistols aren't designed for hollow points..ball ammo is what it's made for.
Always extensively test your carry ammo through your carry gun.
My Tisas US Army model needed a 650 round break in before it ran 100% reliability. Now I’ve got 2,000 rounds through it and I haven’t had a single malfunction in the last 1,350 rounds. All of the malfunctions that I had in the first 650 rounds were failure to feed the last round. It’s also important to note that I’ve only shot 230 grain hardball through this weapon.
Thank you Chris for the data, myself and I am sure others can use this. I truly love the Tisa, best bang for the Buck during this stressed economy. Thank you watching and commenting bro!
@@n721sw I’ve learned to just shoot and carry FMJ ball in my 1911s. I’ve never had any luck with hollow points. The 1911 was designed to shoot 230 grain hardball. The ammo is cheaper and these weapons are extremely reliable when maintained as long as you stick with round nose FMJ. I really do enjoy your content. You are genuine, down to earth and I respect your service as an LEO.
@@christophermead9800 Chris, I want to say a big thank you for those kind words! It is nice to know that some viewers like what I try to bring to the gun community and hearing positive feedback like this makes me want to do more, thank you again Chris, and stay safe man, this year could get a bit crazy. Stay strapped man.
Hello fellow Appalachian.I'm really liking my Tisas 1911 pistols.They just keep working well with ball ammo.I have the Carry model in 45 & the Duty model in 9mm.I bought the 9mm because ammo is much cheaper & I do love the 1911 platform.New subscriber here.
Hey man, thank you for the reply and the sub! This Tisas was a loaner, but I am definitely buying one for myself soon. I haven't thought about going the 9mm route for economy, you really caught my attention with that! I live near Knoxville, I love the mountains!
@@n721sw You're almost close,I've been to Knoxville a few times,and if you do get a Tisas,their American importer SDS is located in Knoxville.I'm about 30 minutes north of Bristol uo I-81 in Va.it's always good to run across someone not to far from home.
Bro, you always answer when mom calls lol. Great video
Hahah heck yea bro! Thanks!!
The barrel on these are throated to help feed hollow points more reliably
You said it all…great vid…subbed!
Thank you Saint! That is so good to hear! Glad you liked this content, and a big welcome aboard sir!
I put surplus US GI grips on my Tisas. The same grips you have on your Remington Rand. 1,700 rounds through it, last malfunction was at about 600 rounds. I never tried hollow points in mine though.
Great point about the hollow points.
I seen what ya did there! Thanks for watching Jim!
The overall length of the Sierra .45 185gr ammo is too short to run reliably in most 1911's unless you use Wilson 47D mags. Thats been my experience.
John that is great to know! Thank you for that info and thank you for watching!
People will blame either the weapon or the ammo when they have a malfunction. In the case of this pistol based on the us army during ww2, this pistol was designed for ball ammo, if you use hollow points, wad cutter and so on, there will be malfunctions. This pistol is modeled after a pistol of ww2 and you must use that ammo of that error, anything else may or may not work as good, it's like having a electric device that's calling for 9v, but you use 12v to operate it, it may work but not efficiently. If this weapon calls for ball ammo, then use ball ammo, cause other types of ammo will be a question mark, and I'm sure the ball ammo of ww2 have laid a lot of enemy soldiers to rest.
Great comment sir!
era* not error
Good advice man. I'm a 1911 45 fan. Sorry to hear about your adversities. As a Christian believer, always remember whenever it seems like the ol' devil is trying his darndest to get you, it's only because he doesn't have you. Keep looking up.

I inherited my 1911 from my grandfather who used his in WW1. I have tried everything from 185 hollow point to 250 grain cast lead. It fed everything. I don’t shot it much because it is close to 100 years old but I am going to buy one of the Tisis 1911’s because I love this gun. If the Tisis is as accurate as my old original it can still put holes in the middle of a silhouette at 15 yards.
Mark, that is awesome! I would love to have a 1911 like that especially with that history. You have something special for sure. Thank you for the comment. I am uploading a new video right now of my Tisas v my new Staccato 2011, I had got a big surprise. You should make a video of that 1911 you have, I’d love to see it!
Tisas is a Turkish company so it’s pronounced Tee-sahs. (Not dogging you, just trying to be helpful.)
In my experience, GI-pattern 1911s are inconsistent with hollow points. Most of them can find a brand/design they feed consistently, but some of them won’t. This isn’t surprising since hollow points weren’t even a consideration when the 1911 was designed. There’s probably some hollow point it will feed, and even if there isn’t, .45 ACP ball is a highly effective round. I’d rather have one with better sights and a modern feed ramp, but I wouldn’t feel screwed if someone handed me this and 100 rounds of ball ammo when SHTF.
Hey man, thanks for the info and for the comment.
I’ve got the same model and it’s actually fairly combat accurate, especially for those period correct sights. For hollowpoints, pick a 230g with a bullet whose profile more closely resembles that of ball ammo. Hyrda Shok does that, for instance.
Enjoy the Tisas. The Tanker and Raider are also great pistols from Tisas. The Carry model is another.
BTW that suppressor at about the 10:40 mark was really impressive. Silenced everything. 😂
Thanks for tip on the HP ammo, I’ll give that a try.
Try Bulldog ammo....I don't think it's made anymore....but you can still find it at gunshows.....it is an all silver colored round and is jacketed....in a way....does not have a hollow cavity....but has a gell like compound inside....that mushrooms on impact....turning it into an ashtray.....but it feeds like a FMJ.....that's what I use in my tanker and my Turkish Hi Power P1....
Oh yeah, bought me one of those, love it
Mine came with two mags recently, and I think a newer version forged hammer ! Incredible buy and pistol .
Awesome! Two mags are a better selling point
Still a great buy even with no mags. :D @@n721sw
I bought one 3 weeks ago from PSA $299, shoots perfect! And it came with 2 mags
@@usualsuspect5173 Thanks for the info man, did it come in a similar hardcase?
yup @@n721sw
Looks just like my Springfield Armory 1911 A1 that I got back in 1990 for $365. It ran 230gr FMJ all day, could should lead bullets to save its life. After fiddling with the ramp and loads I finally got it working ok.
I own 4 of their 1911's they all shoot like a laser!!
Got one a few years back for about $350. It's not the "Army" one, which hadn't come out yet, and it has the "A2" setup. It is one solid and reliable shooter, and is my first foray into the 1911 world, despite my having been a shooting enthusiast since 1986.
An all-steel 1911 that shoots and shoots for $350? What's not to love?
My Tisas zig m1911 didn't like hollow points until a shot about 200 rounds of ball now it shoots it just fine. I haven't tried hollow points in my us army 1911a1 yet.
Hey Bill, thank you for the reply and data point! Please let us know what hollow point ammo that you have had success with, I would love to show the viewers some more real world data. Thank you man for watching, God Bless!
There is a safety recall on these pistols. Sometimes the hammer follows the slide home without a trigger pull.
Interesting, thanks for the heads up, I need to take a look into that. Hard to believe they could f up a system that’s 112 years old. 😳
Good stuff brother. Thanks for sharing. Earned another sub.
Hey thank you! 🙏
Great video, thank you!
Hey thank you zg! Thank you for watching! Glad you liked it!
I had a officer model I wore it out the best gun in the world believe me its the best. 26 year navy vet sends this. Try trx incepter
it wont jam.Better than hollow points.
Hey Chief, thank you for the comment! I am prior Air Force, almost joined the Navy after Top Gun came out. Thanks for the tip!
The big reason to run hollow points is to prevent over penetration We are responsible for every round fired. In urban or suburban settings, that's something to be concerned about. My old Auto Ordannce 1911A1 runs HPs well after it was polished up. My SIG 1911 ran them right out of the box.
Thank you Cooper for that comment, the polishing seems to be a requirement for 1911’s to feed HP ammo.
I have the same Tisas M1911A1 .45ACP. The ONLY ammo I have had issue with was 1776 brand composite bullet. I had 5 of 50 rounds BREAK while feeding and jam the broken bullet in the chamber. JUST because I can, I mirror polished the feed ramp and chamfered it to provide a smoother edge. That 1776 ammo? I hand loaded them one at a time to finish it off.
It is a companion piece for my CMP acquired service grade 1943 Remington Rand with a Colt National Match Hard Slide and barrel from a USAF Marksmanship contract. It is an excellent piece of military history. I enjoy that Tisas as much as the vintage 1911. MSgt USAF ret '73-'95. I served as Security Policeman, Armorer. Flight Operations and
Thank you bracer for the great comment. I too have a Remington Rand 1945 1911 from the CMP, it appears all matching, no idea of it’s history, but my prized firearm in my collection.
I was a KC -10A crew chief in the USAF from 1990-1994, good times! Stationed at Barksdale, many many TDY trips around the world. Miss those days. Thank you for watching and nice to meet you.
@n721sw Well done! Receiving a matching slde and frame from the CMP is a "unicorn " - RARE. I have an RGN for Round 4.
A company called EGW makes a high shelf mag release that seats the mag about .020 higher and it lets the round land higher on the feed ramp and that cured my hollow point problems.
Thank you for that info! Im gonna look them up!
let me be clear...that pistol will shoot anything and everything BUT make sure you buy good magazines for it...Wilson Combat mags is what I run mine with...boy, sweet shooter !
Good review!
Thank you Peter!
It looked like the slide stop engaged on both of those malfunctions? Either the plunger and spring need replacing or you might be bumping it up under the heavier recoil. Just a thought.
I like your vids.

I love LOVE good .45 1911s. I EDC an Ed Brown Kobra Carry and shoot Defensive Pistol Competitions with a Wilson Combat. But I've been thinking about getting a Tisas for a beater/truck gun.
Depression IS a real thing. And taking things one day at a time and looking for the positive really does work. I wake up every morning and decide that today is going to be a good day. It helps set the mood for the whole day. 👍
Thank you Chancellor for the comment, good stuff man. The Tisas is great for the price. Thank you for the sub!
Good review overall. These pistols are getting great reviews across the board, especially at the price point. My only negative and it’s pretty minor, take a listen yourself at how often you say “guys”. I will probably purchase one of these, I have a couple of 1911’s an Sig officer size, and a Colt, I sincerely love the 1911 platform.
Thank you for the reply and the constructive criticism. Tisa is a very good 1911, I was pleasantly surprised with how much I like mine.
I've heard and seen iffy performance out of the sierra jhp in 9mm. I'm running 124g nukes jhp by unlimited ammo in my 9s and I shoot liberty defense 90g jhp 40 sw. My absolute favorite ammo it's $2 a round though so I don't shoot it. It's carry ammo only.
Good stuff man, just make sure to put at least a couple of mags through it with the new HP, I know, it's expensive, but definitely worth it to make sure it runs.
In 1924, a few modifications to the M1911 were in place to make it the M1911A1. One of those changes was an arched mainspring housing, which your pistol has. I prefer an arched mainspring housing to the flat mainspring housing, as it feels better in my hand. I apologize if I am being persnickety.
Thank you for the comment, the 1911 is still here today for a reason, 😀, it’s awesome!
I have read that hollow point ammo in .45 often doesn’t penetrate deep enough if it expands because of the low velocity and large diameter. The combat record of the FMJ ammunition is pretty awesome or we would not still be buying these.
Man that is neat to hear, I gotta check into that! Thank you for that data point!
Most 45 HP ammo penetrates to the FBI criteria of 12 to 18 inches in gelatin tests. Over penetration is more of a concern with ball ammo.
I found that with the Tisas, get good mags to use instead of the factory mags. It runs considerably better than the factory ones.
So true !!!!! Wilson Combat mags solve all kinds of problems !!! 🙂
I run Wilson Combat 47DB mags in my Tisas 1911A1 US Army. 100% reliable, 230 ball.
Good review thanks.
Thank you good sir!
I've run Hornady Critical Defense through mine with no issues at all.
Thank you for that! I literally just bought a box of 20 rds of Hornady Critical Duty 220g for $34.99. It has a pointy tip that I thought may feed better, looks like I picked the right one, I gotta go try it, thanks again!
No problem. I was just adding my 2 cents. But that was my reasoning when I tried Hornady. According to the website, they are +p rated as well.
Great video my friend, mine just went back for warranty work nothing but failures right of the box very disappointing mine is the 9mm duty, plus customer service sucks it take almost a month of emails back and forth before they send me the label to send them the gun, hopefully they fixed,nex time I save my money and buy something from a better manufacturer with better customer service.
Wow, thank you for that feedback, sorry to hear that you had that happen. I am curious how the warranty works out, please come back and let us know. Thank you!
@@n721sw I will, on the paper work say 30 days so will see ,they think mine is part of the recall.
I'll bet your thumb safety is a little mushy. That one jam you had on the hollow point, did not look like a feed jam. It looked as though your slide stop popped up, and locked the slide back. This is due to a weak plunger spring. Change out your plunger spring for a Wolf. This will tighten up your thumb safety and also stop your slide stop from popping up on a partial mag.
Take a wooden dow and some very fine sandpaper and smooth out the ramp
I have a Tisas 1911A1 that I improve with a GI replacement slide. I replaced the hammer, AMH, thumb safety ans slide stop with parts that are more WWII in appearance.
I had my gunsmith refinish it to look more like the WWII finish.
What I ended up with is a more period correct WWII 1911A1 than what Tisas began with.
Auto Ordinance makes a 1911A1 that's close but its a series 80 aks has a lowered ejection port.
Unless you wanna blow your wad on a Colt original or reissue 1911A1 buy a Tisas and do what I did.
Thanks for the comment, I would love to see your Tisas!
It appeared to me that the jam accord on the fifth bullet both times. Curious if you did this test more if it would always be on the 5th bullet. Maybe just coincidence.
I need to try that Joe, good idea,
First one of these Tisas's I have seen that malfunctioned. That being said the 1911 was not designed to shoot hollow points however After beveling and polishing the ramp and throat all of my 1911's they will shoot anything.
If you shoot a bunch of ball ammo then switch to hollow point make SURE the ramp is not lead fouled before doing so on a factory stock 1911.
I don't own or carry anything but 1911's, I even have one that is 100 +- years old and all the numbers match on it, even the main spring housing is numbered...

Howdy, I never shot the Rock Island 1911, but I have heard very good things in reviews.
@@n721sw I bought one recently and think it is pretty good for the money. Thanks.
The Tisas guns are superior, not using any cast metal parts ("Metal injection molded" or MIM) and instead use machined steel parts,
which were made from bar stock or forgings, and which are hardened before machining, making them more dimensionally accurate and consistent.
love mine. watch the factory video. wow. others farm out for parts. the magazines are not so good they jam
Thanks for the comment, it’s been awesome so far, I keep hearing great things about Tisas! I do hear that one needs to upgrade mags, that’s my first thing I am gonna do. I want to upgrade the trigger as well, it would be neat to see how much I could improve an already good platform.

A good fluff and buff is almost on any curry gun

When she brought it out it had the rail, but I was too excited to even notice. I finally realized it when I got home and I was devastated. I wanted one shaped like your Tisas since it was going to be my first 1911. But I ended up putting an Olight Valkerie on it and now im in love.

Maybe it would be helpful to do a bit of research and find out how to correctly pronounce, more or less, the name of the gun manufacturer. It is really not so hard and adds to the reviewer and the review credibility.
Thank you for that tip!
Swap out the guide rod for a one piece unit 👍🏼
Full length guide rods require a tool for take down. No tool is required for GI guide rods. In around 45 years shooting 1911's extensively, never experienced kinked recoil springs. Nor did I find improved accuracy,even with match grade pistols. Full length guide rods are a waste of $$$ and they require finding a paper clip. Try finding one out in the boondocks.
