Tisas 1911

Post by Centaur » Sat Mar 07, 2026 9:41 am

Anybody have one of the GI versions? Thinking about an el cheapo for a truck gun. YouTube makes them look good, but would like to know from others.

Never owned or shot one but they are well liked by owners on our local gun trader site.

For a truck gun, the Rock Island Armory M1911 GI Standard 45 Auto (ACP) 5in Parkerized Pistol, is considerably cheaper than it's Tisas counterpart.

Yes, the Rock Island is another option. Had one for a while, should have kept it.

I will have a Tisas Tank Commander waiting for me next week when we get home from the desert. 9mm version so that ammo isn’t quite as expensive as 45.

Congrats on the new 1911. Mine is a 9mm too and it’s fun and inexpensive to shoot.

Picked up the Tank Commander yesterday, and headed to the range this morning. 150 rounds went down range with zero hiccups, and it shoots where you aim it. I am impressed with the quality of, especially considering the price. A winner!

Pretty much the reviews I have read from the local folks. Glad it’s a keeper for you.
