Steel .45 pistols

[turnandshoot4]

So I am hungry for a steel .45 and can't figure out all that there is out there to offer.

Here is my criteria:
Must hold more than 10 rounds
Must not be 1911
Must not be plastic

Here is what I have come up with
CZ 97B
EAA Witness


So what do you think

Robar RaceFrame Alloy Glock Frames makes a stainless frame glock in 45 gap. no 45 acp. though. i'm sure that can hold at least ten rounds. expensive though. possibly taurus and smith&wesson have steel or alloy framed pistols in 45 also but can't remember if they hold more than 10 rounds. good luck in the hunt!

Thanks! I've got a CCI .40 frame in a current build. I didn't even think of building a .45 version!

Thanks!!

Nothing on their website. I'll have to look into it further.

I vote the Witness, had one in 10mm that the little piggies in Arkansas learned to fear. Lots of pork chops and bacon out of that gun.

This isn't an either or thread but rather "what is even out there?" kind of thread.

No pics of my .38 Super Target Ported 17 Shot. Big all steel guns SA/DA, can carry cocked and locked. Good guns....

Got one, just not in .45

 

[Colt556]

I think Witness will fit yer bill. Good strong well made guns.

Sooo...... I'm new to handguns. Those look like a 1911 to me.

Educate me.

I hadn't thought of those.

Hmm. They are all in the CZ style of pistol. Now I'll have to narrow it down.

 

[workinman]

what about a sig? what haven't looked lately but not sure what they hold as far as round count.

 

[turnandshoot4]

Those are single stack .45 pistols.

I've already got a 220 anyway.

 

[Colt556]

I sold my 220. For some reason it just didn't shoot the way I wanted. Seemed as if it had a lot of muzzle flip. I found some 220 .38 Super mags I need to sell too.

 

[turnandshoot4]

Anymore the bore axis is too high on the sigs for me. That coupled with the shotty craftsmanship coming out of Exter.
