My old man is wanting to get a new 1911. He wants to try a commander-size (true 4 1/4" or 4") with a bobtail frame. He's pretty much a hardcore Colt fanatic and figured he would buy a regular Colt Commander and have a pistolsmith put in some aftermarket parts and bob the tail. I've been doing some looking around for what the options are and these are what I've been able to come up with. He says he not opposed to a 9mm 1911 since he's never had one and has plenty of .45s. So I guess that opens up things a little more. But would love to hear what people recommend. And as always, pictures are even better!
Edit: I have also heard that the CBOB isn't discontinued, but is only being sold in California. Not sure if this is true.
