Which non 45 ACP 1911A1 would you buy/build? What size commander or goverment? Let me know which and why.
 
9mm Gubbmint. I absolutely LOVE this combination, and I have had four of 'em so far.
 
I have a fullsize in .45 and .38 super so next would be a fullsize in 10MM. But I have allways wanted a lightweight commander in .38 super.
 
Every time I go into my local [strike]crackhouse[/strike] gun dealer, I lust after the Colt Delta Elite that has been moving around his case for about 4 months now. I really want a 10mm, I love the 1911 platform, and the CDE is just so good looking. It seems that the greatest handgun platform and the most powerful (common) autoloader caliber kinda belong together.

I also wouldn't mind having a .38 super (albeit much further down on my list), but a 9mm 1911 just seems weird to me.

9MM Gov also. Ramped bull barrel. Caspian damascus slide. Bomar cut with target sights, front fiber optic. Maybe on a 2011 frame with hi cap mags. Compensated.
 
the 1911 frame wears out in 10mm already a commander would not funkshun as well as a glock 29
 
.38 Super full sized M1911, preferably nickel plated. Was looking for a deal on the RIA when I got laid off.

Second choice is a Commander sized gun in the same caliber.
 
Not interested in a .40 S&W?
Well the choices I listed are for the following reasons. I would get the 10mm so I wouldn't buy a 357 revolver, I would get the 38 super out of pure curiosity for the "reloader's dream round" and then I considered the 9mm for affordable plinking. I wish I could have them all.
