This Nutnfancy review dives deep into the Smith & Wesson 1911 PD series, specifically the full-sized #108293 and Commander-sized #108296, highlighting their Scandium frames. The review praises their lightweight design, manageable recoil even during rapid fire, and excellent accuracy, particularly noting the full-sized model's impressive performance in practical shooting drills. Key features like the CNC-milled frame, Black Melonite finish, Novak sights, and a 5lb trigger are discussed. Deviations from the traditional 1911 design, such as external extractors and a grip safety-indexed firing pin safety, are mentioned. Reliability is generally good, with a few stoppages noted with Wolf ammo but 100% reliability with Hornady XTP hollow points. The Commander-sized version is recommended as a CCW option, and the full-sized model's integrated light rail is well-executed. Overall, the review positions these S&W 1911 PDs as strong contenders in their price range for lightweight, combat-ready pistols.
