Id do the Kimber if you want single action, But my HK USP compact is a bad ass little piece! Night sites with the LE kit installed. Its a 5 pound double action!

Get a S&W 625-8 then you have a .45ACP that won't hang up, jam etc

Kimber Tactical carry II
Anyone that thinks a Glock is better than a 1911 paints his toenails.

Love this idea, too.
I carry a titanium 45acp revo on my hip for open carry.
I am not a fan of double stack 45's.
Buy a quality 5" 1911 on the 100th anniversary and be done with it.

The original Dan Wesson 1911's made in USA before the CZ buy out may have been the best of the best 1911's ever made. I just happen to know someone who has an original Dan Wesson Pointman.  :chuckle:

I 2nd that on the Kimber! I just bought a Kimber Ultra Crimson Carry II a month or so back and I love it. I think it is gorgeous. It is so light & compact, perfect for carrying. One of these days I may even shoot it too!  :chuckle:

I've put about 300 rounds through mine. Actually have had some probs with the factory mag. It doesn't feed the last round every time. I bought some CMC mags and they are working flawlessly. I LOVE LOVE LOVE 1911's

Hmmm. thats good info to know. I guess I should get out & shoot mine and see how it does

I agree on the 1911's sweet pistols for sure. I've been thinking about getting an original Colt Govt version. Been looking at a 1918 and I think a 1913...maybe someday soon...
