I just watched this girl's videos:



Very informative, for anybody like me who wants a quick run-down.

To answer a couple of the questions:

I don't exactly know what caliber I'm looking for. Its primary purpose would be for a bedside defensive weapon and something to take out to the range.

Another "issue" I have is, for instance when I'm looking at Kimber 1911s, there are literally something like fifty to choose from. I'm browsing around on their website right now and it's seemingly never ending.

I suspect when I move over to Springfield's site in a few minutes I'll find the same.

This could get confusing.

My much better half has decided to graciously bestow upon me permission to purchase another gun. Truly, she is generous beyond what I deserve.

Okay now that I'm done with the sarcasm..

I don't currently own a 1911. I am deservedly ashamed of this. I have been lusting after one for a while now. My fiancee has officially declared my bedside home defense revolver as her own which frees me up to replace it.

So, my need necessitates a tactical, defensive, beautiful (okay that's just for me), practical, and of course fun 1911 to keep in the drawer next to where I sleep. Let's go ahead and place a 1k spending limit on it so she doesn't use the revolver on me when she sees the receipt.

So, what would you masters suggest? I know there are several experts on the subject on this forum. I'd love to hear your suggestions.

Thanks in advance.
