And apparently it worked. so yeah, sorry for the double posting the same thing. 

Springfield makes a great gun and the customer service is awesome.  Plus, you will have the Custom Shop if you decide to use them.  Good stuff all around.

I would choose the Sig Sauer. I have one and is extremely well built and also Sig has a custom shop service.

Sig all the way. I have to Sig handguns and a Sig ar10. All operate flawlessly and are well made.

I already have a Colt.   Therefore I default next to a FNX

None. You really have not listed any of the top 1911s. I would not consider a 1911 under a $1000 these days.

I'm getting an SR1911... being I don't have one, and not interested in spending over $1,000 on a range gun.

 

However, I picked up a Glock 30S first. I inspected it when it arrived, since I'm waiting on permits, but it is very nice.

Out of the guns on that list, definitely the Springfield.

If you want a gun you dont have to worry about nicking up at the range and just want to shoot the living daylights out of.. And have 15 rds of .45, and stay under $700..And have both DA/SA capability in a gun that weights less than a Springer.. Go FNX-45

Think outside the box - S&W 625

 

 

 

 

Well somebody had to do it.

I pick a Kimber and a S&W Performance Center 1911, why - cause those are the two I have and love.

Wow. No love for the Para. What gives?

I'd get the Ruger.

Scratch that. I didn't see the FNX on there.

If this is for defensive use, only the FNH out of the choices you listed.

 

If this is for recreational use, I would take the Springfield because it would be the best base gun for a custom build in the future.

 

If this is for digging a hole, propping open a door or hitting someone on the head with a heavy chunk of steel, the Para would work great.

Wow, this is some Para hate. Are they really of that poor of quality and functionality?

The early Para's didn't have the best reputation, but since they moved to the US I haven't read much negative about them. I know two people that shoot them competitively - Andy B from the board (you may want to pick his brain via a PM) - I believe his is a single stack. And another fellow I know shoots a double stack Para in IDPA - recently moved up to Sharpshooter with it. I don't recall either of them having any problems with their guns. Everybody has to hate something - I'm guessing it's the Kimber owners hating on the Para's :icon_rolleyes:

 

Adios,

You saying this from experience or because of the price tag?

You must not really be aware of whats out there. There are ton of good 1911's for under a grand
