Flash supressors are illegal in NJ. Clark, to me, means quality. My father passed on to me a colt mkIV 1911 that was made into a bowling pin model about 20 years ago. I'm in no way an advanced shooter but that thing makes me look like a champion at the range.
I was planning on using this gun as a do it all gun. Varmint hunting, home defense, I may enter the world o 3 gun competitions, as well as just punching paper. I probably wouldn't opt for a quad rail system because although I have a few accessories I could throw on it (light, laser, bipod) the added weight wouldn't justify the few times I'd probably use the rail.
I have no doubt that BCM makes good stuff from all the positive things I've heard about their company. Still, I don't need the rail system and I have no guarantee of what it will shoot. Also maybe someone could teach me the differences between their lower and higher priced barrels. The description didn't tell me much.
