Those are very nice for a off the shelf 1911!

For me, the one under my armpit during the day and under the pillow at night. A Colt Commander.

My "perfect" M1911 would be a Gold Cup in .38 Super. Maybe in a bright polished nickel finish or at least bright polished stainless steel.

Too many factors.

Cost
Use
Carry
Range
Home defense
Professional use
Collector wants/needs

The list goes on forever, for me, the perfect 1911 is well beyond $1K

Sort of the way I feel about it, but I have donea lot of my own work on 1911s so I can get by on a smaller budget than most.

Now if the RIA 10mm proves up, it just may be the basis for my "last" (snicker, Yah, the wife will believe that) 1911build up.
