You should be able to get into a Glock 36 for that or less and I would highly recommend that route over the PT145. In my experience, the Glock is MUCH more reliable. It's not quite as compact but it is easily workable.
I thought the Glock 36 was more compact than the PT145, what with it being a single stack gun. I have yet to see one anywhere, so I can't get my fat mitts on it to find out, though. I love my 1911, but as you all know, when the gun bug bites...

Plus, the "Ballistic Tupperware" would be a bit lighter than my full size Kimber.

That's exactly what I did. It's a nice shooter, for it's size, but I just couldn't get used to that DA trigger. I like my 1911 much better.

At the risk of thread drift, anyone have opinions on the Glock 36? I know 1911s and Glocks don't really go together :lol: but, I'm still curious about anyone's experience with it.
