Need suggestions concerning the 45ACP

It is discontinued but can still be found fairly easily.
Ruger P90.

A S&W 645 would fit the bill.

Another vote for the ruger p90. My uncle has one and although cheap in price, its still a reliable nice shooting pistol and backed by rugers outstanding customer service.

S&W 4506 or my favorite a 4566 a bit shorter barrel

Star PD, just don't shoot it a lot!

You should be able to pick up a Beretta 8045 for that much.

Or the Stoeger version (the Cougar), probably easier to find since it's still in production.

Great gun either way, the Stoeger should be easily found under $500 before taxes and stuff.

Some old used Sig P-220? Do you require a new firearm?

Since no 1911's, Ruger P-90. Noit currently made, but probably still available here-n-there.

Used Cz97

Ruger 345 still made and sold.

But it is a polymer frame and the OP wants an all metal pistol.

A sa 1911. Used around 500. Pretty reliable for the price

Why exclude the 1911 design??
Buy a revolver if the 1911 is an issue. I honestly can't understand avoiding the most tried pistol design. I would not carry anything else except my revolvers.
Good luck on your search........

S&W 625 Revolver and a pocket full of clips!!
Yea! Thats the ticket!

Witness Elite Match. Most accurate 45 under $1000. Most accurate 9mm, 10mm, 40 S&W and 38 Super too. They can be had new for under your $600 threshold. All steel and mine is totally reliable. Good looking pistol too.

+1 P-220s are fantastic guns and you can find them used for under $600 if you look around a bit.

ballister molina if you can find one...

I had a Taurus PT945, and that was one fine .45. It was accurate. It is in your budget and is a really fine looking pistol as well. I could hit the target consistently at 100 yards with it, but I don't recall the group size. I don't remember it ever jamming either, even with hollowpoints and semi-wadcutter reloads. The stainless one was light for it's size.

Used P220.

Miles,
I get it now. Thanks.
The S&W 625 is a beautiful gun. I have one and agree wholeheartedly with RC's recommendation. Retail at S&W's website is $979. I think I paid $825 at my LGS. I asked them to order it and it was a 10% over cost to them purchase. GunBroker has about 30 for sale if you do a search.
