Well how does it fire now that you have been to the range with it? It resembles my Norinco 45TT APC for looks and quality I suspect which has so far been great. Mine was only $349.95 by chance delivered to the door by canada Post no less.

Bluegrass, DA wasn't the person in the video, he just gave us the link to it.
My observations:
1) Good grief, how much does a camera with autofocus cost?
2) His "favorite gun manufacturer" is Kel-tec.
3) His comment that it cycles great is meaningless when he hasn't fired it. My SW22 cycles perfectly by hand, but jams 2% of the time. My new Les Baer is very difficult to cycle by hand, but runs great.
4) I've bought several guns at a local gun shop even though I knew I could get it cheaper on-line i.e. 20% less. However, since I looked at the gun in the gun shop, I felt it would be unethical to order it online. I'm the same way with guitars and anything else I could buy locally.
I buy a lot online because it isn't available close by. My closest Ham Radio dealer is 40 miles from here. (Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex is big). I buy nearly all of my camera stuff from B&H in NYC. Anything the local Wolf camera has that I want, I buy from them (like my little Canon Elph collection). They just don't carry high-end stuff.
5) His comment about the fired case being there to show the gun had been fired was comical. The case is for states where you have to turn it over to law enforcement.
6) Anybody can show their ignorance on Youtube. I refrain from that and prefer to demonstrate my ignorance on this forum. Hmmm, I might add that I learned a ton of things from my mentor, DoubleAction.

.....I know that a lot of people won't dish out big money for a 1911; This is reason why I place this pistols on our forum. If anyone happens to own one, they might offer an opinion.
....This is to accommodate the taste of an average gun enthusiast, that wants to have a hands on learning experience with the 1911.
