I'm thinking about adding another 1911 to the safe.
Question for me: which one?
I have a near-new Colt 9mm 1911 with all the bells & whistles and a hard-used Taurus 1911 that works just fine. But I think I'd like to add one more, something with a bit more "character" or history or interest.
My budget is limited and I can't afford the $1,000 guns (or $800 for that matter unless I trade something and I do have a few to trade...) and I won't be carrying it...it's for the range and to gently fondle and to sit next to my P-08, Colt 1903, BHPs, and Walther P4 and S&W 39-2.
I was thinking of perhaps a Sistema Colt...but I'm wondering if there's something else I should be looking for (the hunt is part of the fun). I can be new (RIA) or old or police surplus or military surplus or whatever. I'm looking for a shooter grade pistol...as long as it works it's good for me.
Suggestions.....
