Unless you just want to check a bunch of boxes of the list of tourist places that everyone and their mother knows so that you can say you went there, I would reccomend against going to just capitals.
Touristic capitals are nice to visit but at the end of the day they are just a city with a few landmarks that everyone goes to visit so they are overcrowded all the time. Also, the capitals are way more expensive and you are way more likely to get scammed there.
I'd reccomend instead to stick to just one country and investigating a bunch of cool places outisde the capital and the biggest cities. You will get more variety that way and will be able to experience more of the real culture of the place, since all major european tourism capitals are pretty much just a standard globalized western city with a couple subtle differences.
Spain and France per example are good places to visit this way since they have a bit of everything.
Fuck that, 3 grand could get you a nice hunting trip for bighorn sheep or something of the like. Definitely not a safari but it'd be fun and fairly cheap
Had an Experior and currently have an SFX9
Its faster than and more accurate than a G19
but dont expect it to be 5x better. I just carry a G19
You can do both if youre not poor
Bill Wilson is a snake oil salesman who convinced nearly the entire 1911 community that they need spring buffers, heavy recoil springs, and heavy magazine springs for their guns to run reliably. Don't give him any more money.
He developed the Bill drill

I think Guntoober “Honest Outlaw” said it was unreliable and had shitty resale value. Personally I’d get a 1911 Colt in 9mm for range toy + an HK which would be under $2000 for 2 pistols.
I sold my Experior for more than I paid and have been quoted more for my SFX9 than I paid for it

You could probably have a pistol dolled up to your personal specs for that kind of money. You could also have a really nice antique to have as an heirloom. So really it's not good enough for competition and it isn't interesting enough to show off
That's like six palmetto ARs.
You could lash them all together radially with a few plywood discs cut to fit and build one of those hand cranked gatling gun things.
3k is a totally reasonable amount to pay for a nice handgun, but man if that’s the gun you want to pay 3k for we have so little in common that nothing I say will be in your language

Who said anything about a Girsan 1911? The Regard is a Beretta 92. The double action first shot is good practice, 9mm is cheap so 2500 will buy a lot, and it’s reliable and more accurate than OP is
Wilson Combat is a scam to separate boomers from their money, ridiculously overpriced.
You could get a Prodigy for less than half and have a gun that's just as good. Just avoid the 4.25" barrel.
>Just as good
no
An SFX/EDC X9 is a smaller lighter gun, with better fit and finish, and one of the most accurate pistols on the market.
Where as prodigys use MIM parts and mid QA/QC >Ridiculously overpriced
Nah If a Staccato can be damn near 3k than its understandable for a Wilson to demand a higher price. One gun one gunsmith definitely adds value with 1911s. The Experior and SFX9 ive owned have been downright the most accurate 9mm pistols ive shot.
Now that accuracy is moot having a gun 2x more accurate than a Glock isn't gonna really every realistically come into play.
If OP wants to compete in USPSA a G34 is better, if OP wants a pretty pistol a EDC X9 is better
Get a Laugo Alien instead. Embrace the future, not the past
Laugo Aliens dont really shoot better than 2011s or CZs. Barely better than a Glock recoil wise.
I had bought one of these. It's honestly one of the worst guns I have owned. Those diamond serrations are aesthetic and completely non-functional. They're shallow and slippery and don't work. The frame is 1 piece aluminum but the ergonomics of it suck ass. It's slippery and unlike most of the guns I buy, this one never gave me a decent group. I'm not joking it was just all around not as good literally any other mainstream polymer 9mm.
I called Wilson Combat to try to buy one of their longer trigger shoes, hoping for a better fit and they told me no. They said I would have to send them the gun and pay them to put it in because I was not qualified. When I told them I've built a few 1911's and could figure it out, they acted like I was an idiot, "It's not a 1911." No shit. Their price to put it? $150 and a 6 week turn around. I sold the gun.
>3k
Pathetic. All they did was add machine time to jack up the hours. You can get the exact same thing, functionally, for far less. It's your money though, so buy it lol.
If youre going to be a consumerist degenerate literally just buy a custom made gun for less monies. Otherwise you're just spending a bunch of money to show other people a gun you own that they will Literally care about for 5 seconds and then immediately forget you own.
So how do I explain this?
There's nothing /wrong/ per se, I think it is visually pleasing. However, you wouldn't catch me dead with it. >I wear plain black T-shirts with cargos and boots, no branding, no garden gnomeelry
Why?
I don't know.
I have an innate revulsion of ornamentation, decoration, even though I can appreciate it.
So that weapon Sir while neat, is not bland enough for me.
What is this condition called?
Personally, on for fun only guns I opt for full sizes so they're easy to shoot and hit things with. For carry sized or duty type guns I opt for glawk striker guns because I know they'll be beat up and need to be reliable for that role.
If I were to get a nice 1911 it would be a full size and closer to the original design but do what you want.
>unreliable
They’re widely known as one of the most reliable 1911/2011 handguns on par with any glawk. Much better than Staccato’s mag debacle

I dont like the barrel fluting or whatever thats supposed to be, the x slide serrations, or the rounded trigger guard. Otherwise I'm sure its works fine.
For that amount of money, you could have 5 meals you will never forget, instead.
Meanwhile that gun would just be ina frame somewhere in your house and serve, at best, as a conversation starter maybe a gandful of times per year, if you still get new friends every year.
I really don't understand how anybody can justify selling a pistol, literally a few hunts of steel, for thousands of dollars.
Stuff like that John Wick pistol that costs as much as a car, wtf
You could go on a 2 month vacation traveling though Europe!
holyfuck my eurohands are trebeling from my gay post, excuse me op
What. That's like airfare and a couple weeks at a hotel
700 dollars for a retour flight leaves you with 2300.
Im going to shorten it to 1 month.
London, paris, rome amsterdam. 50*30=1500 for accomodation (cheap hotel, airbnb, hostel)
~200 bux for bus rides inbetween cities).
Leaves you with 600 to spend; still a good time.
>700 dollars for a retour flight
My dude, a round trip flight just to CDG and back is almost $2k
Well yeah if you buy it now, and at this time of year.
>t. with my gf in the town of Homps

You forgot about food. You'll starve in a month with 600 EUR since you would need to eat out
That’s airfare one way

Yes
Who the fuck wants to go to that muslim shithole?
Come to Japan
Best country in the world for tourism
it looks generic and boring
You can spend that $3k on something else that isn't just a hunk of overpriced namebrand metal
you already think it's a waste so go with your first thought and don't do it

that money could feed an african family for a year
Hell, if you never ate out and bought store-brand everything, you could feed an American family for that.
the africans have more than 1 child per couple and live in multi generational homes though
That's like six palmetto ARs.

>hype beast consumerist tactilarper shit
>50 year old company run by post-retirement age boomers known for making 1911s of all things
ya ok
Just because a grift is old doesn't mean it isn't a grift.
I don't understand meme brands. You got a Louis Vuitton holster for it?
nighthawk is better
If you want to spend this much money an sti/nighthawk/les Baer would be better than a glorified Kimber. Also commander 1911's suck massive dick.
Ever wanted to be a pilot? 3k is about halfway to paying for a private pilots license.
its literally a glock but 5x more expensive
Nods are way cooler and 3k will get you a decent pvs-14 setup.
You can have both if your not poor.
>your
How do retards get high paying jobs?
buy it if you like it, but if you only shoot at a public range then don't and focus on improving your life.
Its not a .45
Just buy a Girsan Regard for 500 instead and spend the 2500 on ammo to learn to shoot
>just buy poorly-made gun that requires hand-fitting to be somewhat reliable
inb4 the one girsan 1911 owner comes in and says hes ran 5000 rounds through it with no failures.
Low-income ressentiment

If you really wanted an expensive 9mm 1911 style carry gun why not just get one of the carry model Staccatos and still spend less?
If youre going to be a consumerist degenerate literally just buy a custom made gun for less monies. Otherwise you're just spending a bunch of money to show other people a gun you own that they will Literally care about for 5 seconds and then immediately forget you own.
Buy a PSA 1911 and wire me the leftover $2,600

but mostly consoomers
Rather own a glock with a fun switch
Or that 3 shot beretta, that's pretty nifty
