I LOVE the Pro you got there :drool: . I have been wanting one for so long its ridiculous.

I agree with Compvest we will all tell you ours is best but just like any other gun. Find the one that fits you and go practice with it.

But if you want my honest opinion get the PRO by Springfield. :evil2:

:patriot:
Thanks. The Pro is pretty much everything I wanted in a 1911. There may be others that are equal to the Pro, but from a price stand point, I don't think you can beat it. I'm fixing to order another one :coolgleamA:

Re: Ready to make my first 1911 purchase

Basically what CompVest stated. Each 1911 maker does something different. For example, there are different receivers on 1911s.
This thread would explain quite a bit. http://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=246696" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I have a Springfield and a Nighthawk. The Springfield has what they called a classic with A1 relieve cuts while my Nighthawk has the basic cut receiver. Since I'm used to the Springfield and I shoot it more, I favor the classic with A1 relieve cuts receiver than I am on the basic receiver on my Nighthawk. I would go handle as many 1911 brands as you can to see what fits you best.
