Yup, that is pretty sweet!


I really like the looks of a full dust cover 1911. I'm just not a "1911 guy". The Coonan and maybe one of the Rock Island models with the full dust cover are the only amongst a handful that have really made me want one. None of the fancy high end stuff even gets my attention. I don't even look twice at them when I'm shopping. But I'm also not much of a .45 acp fan so the Coonan just managed to ding all the right bells for me.

If they were widely available and under $1K I think I'd have one by now. But over $1K and having to order one and wait monthes (not sure about now) I just never could get there.

I want to add another wheel gun to my collection but if I stumble across the means to get a Coonan I think I would do it.
