[Firepower!]

Well. My old 1913 model Colt 1911!

 

[Rinspeed]

Here's my Excalibur.

 

[loki.fish]

Quit showing Les Baers, I don't want to spend the $$$ on one right now :/

 

[doubleg]

My one and only...

 

[Belgiboy]

Rinspeed, that is as good a picture as you will ever see. Composition and lighting is perfect and it's a 1911, what more could you ask for.

Here is my pet, a Kimber Custom Target II with Hogue Rubber grips. The target shows 50 shots at 30 ft. That just shows how good I am, the gun is way better.

 

[Ske1etor]

This is the first pic I ever took of the Kimber. I have to take some new ones at some point... some things have changed while others stayed the same. Targets were shot at 25 yards... those were from the first range trip... on left is the first mag of the day and on the right is the last mag of the day.

For the money Les Baer makes the best 1911 there is period. I like both Kimber and Springfield but when people ask about spending $1200 on either I think it's foolish. You can get into a Baer for $1350 or so. Last pic I promise.

 

[ForneyRider]

All of them.

Anything with two-tone and Cocobolo grips.

Springfield Arms Marine Corps Operator.

Some day I will own one. Some day...

 

[SRT1]

My Kimber PRO CDPII shoots mroe accurately than I do, and is a real pleasure to shoot. When it warms up and I get the wood shop opened up again, I'm going to make a nice set of Brown Mallee burl grip panels for it and it will be even better (it's hard to make it any prettier than it already is toher than that).

 

[possum]

any 1911 but mine in particular, a sa mc operator, yep it's sexy and shoots good.

also my ruger p345 because it is the most accurate gun that i have and it is a joy to shoot. to elaberate a little it gives me 1.5" groups at 15yds , standing off hand.

 

[Black Majik]

I love this thing..

 

[strangelittleman]

Black Majik, That is a great looking weapon!
Nothing says," I love my pistol !" like a well used pistol, with holster wear showing...That is a pistol someone is comforted by & confident in!.....

 

[foghornl]

Springfield Armory "GI-45"

I like my SA "Champion" model too, but there is just 'something' about a 5" 1911-A1 that gives me the 'goofy grin' when shooting.

 

[jagdpanzer347]

Colt Series '70 1911. Bought it for three hundred bucks about twelve years ago. I shoot more accurately with it than any of my other pistols, even the .22s.

Kimber Eclipse and Colt Premier

 

[Frandy]

My Dan Wesson Patriot and Sig 220 Carry

 

[Dobe]

Ed Brown Executive Target.

 

[UnTainted]

I'd have to say it's a 220, though I don't own any .45s (yet). I haven't shot a 220ST, though I want to. I like 1911s too, but I just gotta heart SIG.

 

[Rustynuts]

For the price and being rock solid, my Bersa 45



For elegance, dependability, and 1911 coolness, my Kimber UC CDP II



For home defense room clearing, TLR-2 laser toting, no BS workhorse, my SA XD45 Compact Service (on left).

 

[highrider]

My P220ST, with my P245 close behind.

 

[Thernlund]

This is at least the 3rd or 4th time I posted this pic. I jump at the chance and giggle like a little girl every time I do. I just love this pistol. Love showing it off too.

I also have a P220 Carry identical to the one Frandy posted above. Love that one too. Easily my second fav in my collection.

Sig P220R Carry SAO with Nills grips. Form + Function + Style.

 

[schmeky]

This early model Kimber Classic Custom. Hey Rinspeed, man, I love that Bear you've got, a real beauty.
