I remember a guy on here having all sorts of issues with the EB 1911 he had built and then EB had the nerve to say he needed to buy these parts to fix it.

I’m seeing a lot of interest in the 2011 coming from LE and retired military that are now firearms instructors. STI has changed their name to Staccato I believe and is chasing the LEO market heavily taking on a lot of LE and military trainers as pro staff. To me this is absolutely stupid. STI guns are not and a seriously doubt will ever be a duty level gun. I understand that they are easier to shoot accurately than a Glock or similar weapon and when your doing demos it’s important you can demonstrate skill to the class to back up your instruction but to pass them off as a duty grade gun I think is morally wrong. I’ve seen so many 2011 problems in 6 years of competition shooting that I wouldn’t use one for duty even if it was built by some of the top builders like atlas, chambers, and the likes.
