Re: Ready to make my first 1911 purchase
The problem with 1911's is there are so many good choices. If you have up to $2,000 to spend, you have a lot of options. You mentioned you want a pistol for competition and carry. If it were carry only, I would suggest you look at Colt or Springfield as they seem to be priced a little better than some of the competition and can take a beating, which is important for daily carry. If you want a tack driver, maybe Kimber or Sig. You really can't go wrong with any of the major manufactures. Personally, I would not want to carry a really high end gun as my daily carry. I would be too worried about getting it marked up. All my carry guns are intended to be used as a club if I run out of ammo.
