As a plug for anyone thinking about this, my first 1911 was a 5 inch 1911A1 Rock Island just like this one. It fed everything I've put in it, is more accurate than me, and has never had so much as a hiccup. For someone looking to get into 1911s without breaking the bank, this is the way to go!

I'm not sure how you passed up on that after we beat each other with my .45 vs. your glock.....

I'll get there. I'm just determined not to rush into it like I did with my first AR - which I sold a year later at a slight loss to raise money to build the one I really wanted but just didn't know I wanted when I bought the first one.
I've been close about 5 times to buying a 1911 but just not quite yet. I think I've narrowed it down to a full-size 5-inch all-steel gun (as JMB intended), but probably want more upgrades than I initially thought I would. Liking everything about the STI Spartan except the giant SPARTAN engraved on the slide

Also seriously contemplating a stainless Springfield or even Colt at some point. And of course, I know that once I buy the 5-inch all steel 1911 I'll have to get an aluminum frame 3-inch baby brother model to go with it.
Anyone want to buy a house so I can buy a pair of 1911s?
