whats so great about these guns? darn things are expensive.
Yes, they are. There's a lot that goes into one of them. IMO, the first $$ is the Wilson name. The service is impeccable. They make everything out of the best steel-no MIM. You mostly pay for all of their time in hand-fitting, etc. You can get one of their lower end models or a used Honda Civic. I want one and probably could swing it, but I don't know if I could live with spending that kind of money on a pistol. I'm still thinking of a Les Baer, though.
I have a WIlson CQB 45acp. This is the finest most precision built gun I have. They are guaranteed to shoot a 2" group at 25 yards. The hand fitting/labor is where the cost is. It is like a Rolex watch, a finely tuned instrument. I would love to have a Wilson 10mm but too pricey for me.
