Springfield Range officer or equivalent. Possibly a used loaded Springer. These are great guns.
Welcome to ingo.
Sig makes a 1911.
I'll have to wait til Monday morning to verify the price tag, but if you want to try on some various 1911s including the Range Officer, stop in at Tomlinson's in Churubusco.
P.S.
Free candy.
Went in there last thursday and they didnt have any, sounded like they were unsure of when they would get one in. Also was given a price 200 over what I can get it for at GunBroker
What are you saying? Would you be able to shoot the really expensive one? I want one of the Ed Brown Signature ones but I could never bring myself to shoot it.Id rather have one really expensive nice 1911 than 60 progressively more expensi... what am I saying, cant I just have everything!?

Erma Gerd!
I could not ever own a gun I wouldn't shoot.
At. Least. Once.
Every time I see boxed things that say "Never Fired"...well, news flash; it had to be test fired or they could really get sued big time.
But even with the collectible older stuff...I see pieces crossing my path all the time that I just wanna pull the trigger on. Just once.
Neatest ones were a 1914 era Colt and a Singer with no serial (500 were made with serials, and an unknown number were made without for their employees). I'd soooo shoot those guns.
So what aspects of these models do you think make it a better purchase? Seriously, I don't know enough to have an opinion.Another vote for the Springfield Loaded or R.O. models in your price range !! You won't go wrong there....
I already had to show her why I needed to purchase two 1911's in 3 months.

P.S. I do not get a kickback from Tomlinsons. I just appreciate good service.
thanks guys and downzero im looking into the STI spartan
You don't come in enough.
Remember, you don't have to buy something just to come in. That's what the chairs are for...come visit!
I will try to do better!
I have been looking at the Remington R1 among others. Anyone have any opinions on these?
You're right, that might be a deal breaker for me. FYI, I don't believe I have ever been "yippy skippy to go".If you're a purist, you won't like that 1/4 notch that lets the hammer fall with a trigger pull (vs the half cock notch that does NOT let the hammer fall with a trigger pull).
If that's not a deal breaker for you, then you're yippy skippy to go.
