      I really want to get a Professional.
      But a Sig 1911 is the most accurate production 1911 on the market.
      I do not consider a Professional to be a production gun.

          I just wish I could get in on a CMP 1911 ;-)

              Only ever had 1. Springfield Operator. I got it in trade for a Tula SKS. Then sold it to a friend to fund 2 AR's. I really want it back.
              My old boss has a Springfield Loaded. First 1911 I ever shot. He says I get it when he downsizes.

                I witnessed a person buying a Springfield Loaded Target in Stainless one time, it looked like a really nice gun, but I would never buy a gun

                  I am very 1911 fortunate. It was the first platform I dedicated my pistol shooting to and have come to realize it's about the nuances of the pistol.

                  1) Extended Beaver Tail
                  2) Front Checkering
                  3) Extended Safety
                  4) Target Sights
                  5) VZ Grips

                  All this things basically make a sub $1000 1911 shoot as nicely as a $3000 1911

                  Now in regard to specific 1911's that have no collection value (I have a CMP 1911, and a 1947 made Colt for instance) I prefer to spend my money on Les Baers.
                  Before there was Polymer there was Accuracy.

                    Stared with SA Mil. Spec, then MC Operator, SA Pro, EB, LB, NHC, and finally WC.

                    My absolutely favorite is the NHC Falcon. Well worth the investment. And the lesser production guns aren’t equal, sorry that’s simply not true.

                        Whatever 1911 is in my hand....

                        Love any decent full sized 1911 in either 9mm or .45...not sure why, but they just feel right to me.
                        Wilson Protector .45, Springer 9mm Loaded, Franchi Instinct SL .12ga. and some other cool stuff for the kiddos...

                            My Nieces Mothers Sisters Brother has a Kimber Pro Carry ii in 9mm, that I understand Handles and Shoots Extremely well, for a 6 Year old 1911 with Probably 4000 rnds thru it. I of Course could never Afford one.
