Ok boys, this is the big one! I officially have the 1911 bug. Almost 2 years ago I had a problematic Springfield 1911 and swore off them for good, but I can't resist!
I'd love a full size 1911 that can serve as a HD pistol and possibly CCW. My main requirements are absolute reliability and durability. I don't mind if it rattles as long as its well built to work and last a lifetime.
I've heard that new Colts aren't any good, and their machinery is worn out and outdated. Is that true? And I don't really want another Springfield. I want something American with a forged frame that's built for total reliability, not a target gun that's water tight. I don't need a bunch of frills and whistles either, I'll replace what I want after 2k rounds or so.
My budget? I guess about $1500-2k
