We encourage you to experience shooting sports in a respectful and responsible environment as our guest.” Rob Bianchin, President, Cabot Gun Co.

  1. I expect the Prez to accept this invitation – when Hell freezes over, pigs fly without a launching cannon, and we reach TEOTWAWKI.

    However, the invitation is an excellent example of chutzpah.

  2. WOW – After reading all the hype, I’m pretty sure the “Jones” gun will wash and wax your car, cook your dinner and read you a nice fairy tale before bed………….and it better do more than that for $9K+

  3. No way the secret service will let him go, one negligent discharge and Biden would be prez, and they aint gonna let that happen.

  4. Were it a shotgun event…

    Hmmm… A Rolls is certainly well made and appointed, but I prefer the styling of Bentley.

    I’ll think of Cabot as the Bentley of 1911s.

  5. I can see the headline now: “Gun Nut Sends Threatening Mail To President; threatens lynching ‘1911 style’ in vicious rant…”

  6. Fantastic. Really a great show of “we’re the bigger people than you!” as well as “we’re proud of our well-engineered, quality built American products Mr. President, come and experience them for yourself.”

  7. Sounds an awful lot like….

    President Lincoln,

    It would be my honor if you would accept the complimentary Presidential box for Friday night’s viewing of Our American Cousin. Should you need someone familiar with the play, the actor John Wilkes Booth is in town, I will certainly ask him to be present.

    Or maybe that’s just wishful thinking.

    • No, that is not wishful thinking, its just plain bad thinking.

      If Obama were to snuff it for whatever reason, then we are left with.. ‘ol double-barrel Joe Biden…We would have traded our way from a twit to an outright incompetent.

  8. Pretty, but if I wanted to spend $9Grand on a 1911 (assuming the wife would allow it), I’d go just a couple miles down the road to Les Baer.

  9. I think he’s going to sign the executive order disbanding his secret service detail and establish a gun free zone around his person first, then he’ll be right over.

  10. This is what we do. We educate the public through experience. I take to the range anyone interested, anytime. Tune in, Turn on, Buy a Reloading Press.

  11. Please, don’t put a classic piece of American History in his hands.

    Surely there is a gold plated something available.

  12. I looked around the Cabot website and they sure are proud of their 1911s. I have a hard time getting excited about shooting a piece of art (one of their pistols) when I can shoot a weapon of war (my 1943 Remington Rand). With all their super tight tolerances how often do the jam?

  13. see and shoot the all-America made Rolls Royce of 1911 style pistols by Cabot Guns.

    Okay Cabot… if’n you want to be proud of being “all-America”n made perhaps you shouldn’t hold up a British made car as the apogee of style and luxury (even if it is). Perhaps you would be better served by:

    see and shoot the all-America made Cadillac (or Corvette) of 1911 style pistols by Cabot Guns.

  14. This was a great idea and a very well written invitation to expose The President to a wonderful part of the American experience. Many of the comments reminded me of why I am no longer a member of the NRA though. There is an unwritten rule, “blacks need not apply”.
