I think there are way, way too many 1911 purists to let this 'thing' to get a hold. This will be discounted within a year. Truth is it may be a great gun but it will never be able to stand up on it's own.
The gun could very well possibly stand on its own, what it can't do is stand on the 1911's design and history, it has nothing to do with purist, its no more a 1911 than it is a glock.

And yet almost every negative comment on this gun has been linked to it not being a 1911 and therefore bad.

Everyone agrees that it is not a 1911, but does that mean it is bad?
The negative comments are because they have the audacity to call it a 1911, which it clearly doesn't have a lot in common with.

Its like taking the engine out of a Corvette, putting it into a Honda Civic, and calling it a Corvette. It might have a few guts of the Corvette, and might be the fastest thing on the block, but a Corvette it is not.
