Anyone have experience with this company's 1911s? They are stationed in my city so driving and picking one up won't be a problem if they are top notch.
I checked out their website and they mentioned in some of their components the company named Caspian. I've heard of them but not too much.

Briley purchased the "Fantom" series of pistols from Fred Craig, pistolsmith from Kansas. Fred designed the Fantom pistols and they were built on Caspian slides and frames. I purchased the Fantom model F19R, an IPSC (38 Super) racegun with 6 port comp, C-More... very accurate and well built. Standard length mags hold 18rds, 170mm length mags hold 26rds

Craig is an excellent 'smith, as is Briley Manuf.
