Best 1911 for .......

[Revived]

Haha... all this excitement over entry level 1911's... even at this price point - most will out perform the shooter buying them... makes about as much sense as who has a better mini van...

Entry level is a meaningless term coined by gun snobs to make themselves feel better about the ridiculous amount of money they spent on their overpriced firearms that don't perform any better than more economically priced models. The usual suspects are typically Kimber and Colt fanboys. Which are you?

Colt fanboys I can relate with, Kimber fanboys are just a lost cause. And a Kimber is my EDC pistol but a fanboy I am not.

You'll be happy IMO.

Here's a nice writeup by Joe Chambers on the Ruger

Puts a S&W to shame at the given price point.

Geez....you really are still butthurt about those TRP comments eh? It's interesting how closely you boys tie your feelings to your 1911 purchases.

Not at all. I bought my TRP for $1000 new when you said it was impossible. Now what price are they? No, I just like proving you wrong.

I'm riding a bike, just dreaming of my Mom's minivan.

Nope, you're not acting emotional at all. Completely normal for a grown man to whine about what some guy said about his chosen brand of 1911 in terms of what it routinely costs...... months after the fact.
