(To the other 1911 guys) thinking of getting a colt but I have no experience working on guns so their lack of a lifetime warranty worries me a tad. Am I over thinking it? Hello everybody. I'm a big 1911 guy. I carry a Taurus everyday and I love it but I'm thinking of upgrading to a Colt. The thing is, I've never owned a 1911 that didn't have a lifetime warranty from their manufacturer. The thought of a serious problem that requires a large chunk of change from a gunsmith is kinda making me pause a little. Am I overthinking it? Thanks guys.
