"I have been shooting and carrying Wilson Combat pistols since the early 1980s and they have never let me down. Through the years the consistent high quality, precise fitting, accuracy, and reliability of Wilson Combat has always impressed me. I consider them to be of the highest quality and utterly reliable."

"I have used Wilson Combat products virtually my whole shooting career. In both competitive shooting and work-related use I have always had the highest confidence in carrying Wilson Combat products. My original CQB pistol has more rounds through it than I could begin to count and it is still my favorite 1911. As a firearms trainer who is best known for my shotgun programs, I have found the Scattergun Technology line to be ideally suited for use as either a defensive firearm or a duty-use tool. A Professional Model rides to work with me every day. With WC’s entry into the AR-15 market shooters now have a one-stop place to cover all the bases for their shooting needs."

"What can I say about Bill Wilson that you haven’t heard before? As a pioneer in the development of products for the practical pistol aficionado, he has no equal. Whether you’re talking about the legendary 1911 magazines he developed with Bill Rogers, properly-shaped grip safeties (commonly referred to as a beavertail), or the best adjustable sights available for a pistol, he and his company are top-of-the-line.
It’s really simple to understand when you think about it. He, like most of the folks using his products, is a shooter, and a damned good one. Any engineer can sit down and draw a pretty part on solid works, but until you’ve spent countless hours and shot hundreds of thousands of rounds on the range, you can’t know what that part is really supposed to do. Like common sense, you either have it or you don’t. You either get it or you don’t. The ability to figure out what a part needs to do to work correctly when it’s on your gun is different than just making it fit! Many in this business do not get that. Bill and his staff do.
They were there in the beginning, when we were just learning how to improve the 1911, and have built on that experience to produce the finest, best-performing accessories available today. I in the past and still to this day use many Wilson Combat products. Whereas many parts designed and built back when I started in the 80’s have long since retired, most anything Wilson made is still in use today. And more than that, still winning. Wilson Combat parts will make any gun better!"

"Let me say from the start that I have trusted my life to Wilson Combat products. While serving in Delta Force the standard issue duty handgun was a tuned 1911A1 - Wilson mags were the most widely used magazines in the Unit and they were the only mags I used in my 15 year career serving in Delta. That to me speaks volumes about their dedication to quality.
In addition when I wanted to do an enhanced duty 1911 magazine the only choice in my mind was Wilson Combat. I approached them with my ideas and we as a team made it a reality. I’m biased of course but in my opinion they are the best heavy duty 1911 mags ever made in both .45 ACP and 9mm. I urge you to try them if you haven’t done so.
Wilson made the Vickers Elite 1911 for a period of time and it was universally well received- several of my friends own more than one. I inspected many in my classes in the hands of students over the years and I was consistently impressed with the overall quality of the product. Once again Wilson’s hit it out of the park.
In 2027 Wilson Combat will celebrate 50 years in business- I for one offer my heartfelt congratulations to a very significant achievement. They are doing something right to make it 50 years and I’m sure they will keep the same mindset moving forward into the future."
