One from each.
The question is you can order one model from each of the four larger 1911 shops. Money is not a consideration, how much it cost nor getting the higher cost model and selling it to buy the one you want then pocketing the difference. What guns you have now also not a consideration.
Nighthawk: Talon with the FLEX option in 9mm
Les Baer: Super Tac
Wilson Combat: Protector in .38 Super
Ed Brown: 5" SS Kobra
What are yours?
Just thought of this because I am trying to decide between going to the gun show tomorrow and buying a gun (Mini 14 or a .38 Super 5" 1911 if I can find one) or ordering a new 1911 from that crack dealer named George.

Nighthawk: Either Lady Hawk (Titanium Blue) or Enforcer (hardchromed)
Baer: Already have a TRS in NP3+, but wouldn't mind having a HC'd TRS Commanche.
Wilson: Already have a CQB and an ULC compact on it's way, as soon as it get's built, but would like to get a bobtailed Supergrade Pro someday.
Ed Brown: A bobtailed SF Carry in stainless.
You left out Guncrafter. Since I already have a No Name Commander, I wouldn't mind having a Model 3 .50GI bobtailed Commander.

I'd love to have an SRP from Baer, probably hard chrome and with the 1.5" guarantee while I'm dreaming.
From Ed Brown I love the Classic Custom, especially in two tone. Realistically I'm hoping to pick up a SF this year, I really like the stainless finished ones.
Cost not being a consideration I'd have to choose a Classic Super Grade from Wilson. (How come all the ones I like best are ones Bac owns? ) As a side note, I'm also realistically hoping to pick up a CQB this year.
I'm the least familiar with Nighthawk, I suppose I'd go with the Dominator.

I'd want to replace two of your "big four" with SV / Infinity and Springfield Custom Shop.

Infinity is a clear step or two above any of those, in my opinion.
They're custom built per order from scratch and are top quality in every way.

One of the nicest single stacks I ever handled was a used SVI in .40 (before they went to Infinity). They were asking $1500 and I didn't go for it.

Those of you who prefer to leave the Baer's out of your Big 4, I'll take them and you can have my other picks:
Super Comanche
Ultimate Tactical
PII in 9mm
Stinger Stainless

Cool 
Carbon steel is the way to go. What's the final price? That Infinicoat isn't cheap.

The price jumped to $3950. Which I didn't think was too bad.

Not cheap, but you are getting what you pay for and it's going to be something special. Can't wait to see it.
