    Torn between two 1911's. Need suggestions.

    I finally got $$ to pick up my next 1911. I'm looking at a Kimber Gold Match 1(no pin safety, not available anymore) and a Springfield Armory 1911 on a 9mm still available as brand new. I currently have 2 Gold Cups and a Colt 1991A1.
    I like them both(wish I have funds) but only one right now. Seller asking $1100 for the Kimber(stainless steel) is this reasonable. Thanks.

        Kimber, no question. But it is not an apples to apples comparison since the SA is in 9mm. Do you want a 9mm gun or a 45?

          Well I would like a 9mm but Kimber Match is hard to pass up especially that u get them anymore. Really hard to decide. I also have a 92FS and XD9 Tactical for my nines.

            i'd get the kimber just cause you can't get the seriesI. the sights are adjustable which i like too.

                  On this? Even as much as I love 9mm 1911's, I'd get the Kimber.

                          Even though a 9mm 1911 is nice, out of the 2, I'd get the Kimber. But its your money and spend it as you please. Get both
