Hello all, came across this model. Cannot find much info about it. It basically looks like the Cimarron 1911 with the 1911 style frame but approx $100 less than the Cimarron. Having trouble finding any details about it other than the one picture I've found. If anyone has one could you please take a few pictures of it, I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Where did you see this model number? The Armscor website makes no mention of that model number. Can you post the one picture you found?

I found the picture and model # on Bud's guns. If you Google it, a few other online vendors have this pistol also but all use the same picture. I don't know how this forum feels about posting screen shots of advertisements, so I didn't. I put one of theses one layaway, so I'll find out a lot more about it in a couple months. Lol

Well, I got a message from Bud's this morning that the pistol was out of stock. Called them and was able to transfer my deposit to basically an identical pistol. This new one has fully checkered grips, instead of the double diamond pattern. It's only about $25 less than the cimarron though. For the curious the model # is 56472 and the Bud's item # is 723038936. This is the only information I can find on this pistol. I was told they have plenty in stock.

I received the pistol and I'm quite pleased. It's similar to my cimarron except for the serrated mainspring housing, with no lanyard loop. I put the grips on it that came with my cimarron, until I find a nicer set of walnut. I have included a picture of the fully checked grips that came on it.
