Re: Suggest a .45 to meet these criteria

In addition to the SIGs and the P345 mentioned earlier, you might look at third generation Smith and Wesson pistols. The CS45 (Chief's Special) offers the smallest, lightest variant, and they go up in size/weight to the 4506 (all stainless slide and frame, full-size).

Shootability and recoil management vary with the weight, with the largest/heaviest offering less perceived recoil and quicker return to target. I had a second generation Smith 9MM that was a delight to shoot and absolutely reliable but the ergonomics was not great. The ergos for the third generation are better, and I have heard nothing but good things regarding the reliability of the third-gen. Smiths.

I am not certain how large the selection of aftermarket stocks for the third generation Smiths is, but there are at least a couple of different options from the standard stock.
