what is the best 45 pistol in your opinion?

Good to see you back.
I don't reckon that you could go wrong with that choice.

Welcome back.
Good to see you post again.

If you post only once and start a provocative thread you will find you get accused of being a troll.
I never though that.

I figured you are more likely to be a Russian election-influencer posting from Volgograd.
Добро пожаловать

You are so right and I stand corrected.

I have been guilty of pre-judging and racially profiling covert Russian internet troll election-tamperers.

We need to be mindful and maintain TGT as a safe space for said Russians.

I’ve carried this for some years .... Wilson’s Tactical Carry ... they’re not cheap, but my life isn’t either !!

Anything by Wilson makes me drool. Several years ago after a nice year-end bonus, the wife let me spring for a Nighthawk Bob Marvel Custom. I just don't get to the range with it as often as I would like (it is 30 miles away). But what a wonderful piece of machinery.

I find there is an extreme lack of pictures and explanations in this thread.

Troll or no troll, just saying 1911 IMO isn't a good answer. From what I've seen there are good ones and bad ones, and since, although I'm not in a hurry, I'm looking to buy a 1911, I certainly was hoping for better responses.

Sorry, easy. Bob Marvel Custom with Overland Gun Leather holster. I recommend getting one of each.

Beautiful! I will keep that in mind for when I win the lottery. I have an extensive list of high end guns just for that occasion.

P.S. I am jealous though.

Get a Ruger or a Springfield.

Can't go wrong with either one.

Yeah, that's more in line with my budget. I have looked at quite a few, just looking for the one that says "this is the one!"

Springfield Range Officer Champion. Our Academy had them last weekend for $875.

Saw that, but like I said, I'm not in a big hurry. Plus I need to at least wait until payday. There was a few at Ally Outdoors in my range that I've been thinking about too. I may have to go back and see what they have again.

Ally also has a few on consignment, which I also thought was kinda cool.

If you can find a Sig in your budget I'd highly recommend you take a look at them.

I've been looking at many different makes and saying "oo, ah" quite often. Also checking out a lot of reviews and videos.

I've had my eye on this at LGS for a while. I'm a SIG fan. I own a P938 and the wife carries a P232. I've read good things about the SIG 1911. It's funny - I own a Nighthawk. But once the 1911 bug bites, one just isn't enough. Whenever I see a photo of a Dan Wesson ECO, I want one. But I have read of too many reliability issues with the ECO. Too bad. Because it is such a darned good-looking gun. Kind of like learning that the cute cheerleader is a complete b****.

Just the thing for all you 45 freaks. If a 45 bullet is a "Stopper" how about 2 at once..... Cheap at $7600

That's what's known colloquially as a "3822".

Why?

Why?

1911 x 2
