I stopped by my LGS yesterday to see what they had in the cases. Most were empty, then I saw the end case that was loaded with 1911's. The ones I'm interested in run from 750-850 in cost. I handled a Springfield range officer, a Ruger SR 1911, a Remington R1 Enhanced model, and a Desert Eagle. All were fullsize 5" Models. They all had extended beavertail grip safeties, skeletonized triggers and hammers, polished feed ramps.
Each of these guns were very well fitted, with no rattles, and decent triggers.
I wanted to buy one, but I could not make up my mind on which to buy! I'm leaning toward the Range Officer because it's US made, and Springfield has excellent customer service, and if I want to customize it, I can send it in to the custom shop for work.
Help me decide which of these guns I should buy, and tell me why.:banghead:
