1911 $1k or less looking at sig

Was about to get a tacpac 45 for $819 no rail and dangit its gone. Buds has it though.
Then I see an xo and a sig target model in the $800 range also. Are all these basically gtg? why would one be preferred over another?
then I see a colt gold cup stainless
This wouldnt be for ccw, just hd and maybe a car gun.
Ive heard good things about the springfield ro but for $800 im gonna want a durable finish..

Update
Tacpac it is!

I'm very happy with my XO.
I don't care for front serrations or rails on a 1911.
I should take another pic as it has plain black Hogue diamond grips on it now.

It was $1050 with the Crimson Trace laser grips.
I'm trying to sell the grips to help with a new Glock purchase.

I went to Cabela's to buy the Auto-Ordnance for $570. I also looked at the Kimber but the Sig won me over.

I like my Scorpion but I have heard Kydex and the cerakote don't go well together. It is stainless underneath however.

I have the matte black XO model and I like it a lot. It is extremely accurate and it shoots everything I feed it. I have other 1911s but this one is my new favorite.

The trigger is excellent.

Found stainless xo for $924 + ship and ins and ffl fee
Will be a little over $100 more than a tacpac. With tacpac id get 2 extra mags but ive heard fact. Sig mags might not be good....
Thoughts?

I can't figure, when you are up at that end of things a couple of mags here or there would be a deal breaker

Spend enough time with 1911s and it's like holsters-you end up with a metric S***-Ton of them.

So does my wife. She was at the LGS when it came in and thought that I just had to have a 1911 with a rail so I could go out and try and find holsters for it I guess. It's really nice but I like the "Fastback" myself but as range gun for now it's fine.

My Sig 1911 has become my favorite. I've got an old SA Gunsite pistol that Ted Yost customized for me back in the 90's. I've got a Kimber SAS that's been worked on my Gemini Customs. But my favorite is my Sig which is mostly stock except I replaced the Novaks with some Heinie sights and installed a smooth face extended trigger. Otherwise its stock.

Want some beta grips.
All 1911 grips work, anybody know?
also some target sights.
The trigger is a beautiful thing tho
