Walked into the gunshop today and found they had a Colt XSE Commander and a Colt Rail Gun with the black Cerekote finish. I'd love to bring them both home, but thats not an option. So the question is which one?
I've already got quality leather for the Commander. But the stock grip safety would have to go, as well as the FLGR and perhaps the ambi safety. Sights would be changed as well.
On the other hand , I've hand a hankering for a railed 1911 for sometime and have visions of it being a duty gun someday. (probably never happen, but hey, I can dream) I definitely like its G.I. recoil setup. Only thing I'd change on this one is the 3 dot sight in favor of a tritium front and 10-8 or Wilson Ultimate Speed Sight rear. (and maybe remore the ambi safety)
Opinions? Colt's don't hang around long and I plan to pick one of them up tomorrow or saturday.
