I have to say a 2” model 10 or a model 36 is hard to beat and period appropriate. I’m a huge fan of either. I think budget wise, a quality 1911 will run you about twice of a quality revolver unfortunately. Factory 1911s are always a gamble if everything will be right from the box. Usually small stuff like an extractor that hasn’t been tuned. My 2 cents would be if you’re goin with a wheel gun, grab a model 10 or j frame from the time period. If you’re goin with a 1911, I’d go with something like a Dan Wesson vigil/valor/a2 or a Springfield TRP and replace the stocks with some wood. If I could propose a third option, it would be either a n frame S&w in 45 acp. Maybe like an ol model 1917 or a model 25.</blockquote>
