but if you want to go the historical route...get a 1911

springfield armory makes an awesome GI issue 1911

I have a soft spot for 1911s..sorry[/quote:28856]

I shot one of these, very nice. Felt much tighter than I remember from my days in the Corp. Not as nice as a Kimber and what you see is what you get, but a damn fine pistol.
