So my reward for quitting smoking is going to be that I get to order a new gun when we get our next tax refund - I'd prefer a Colt, but it doesn't have to be.
I'll have ~$1500 or so to put into the gun ($1750 max)
Necessities -
Full size or commander
Beavertail grip safety
Bobbed or flat MSH
Carry sights
High polish, matte blued, or black oxide/parked (no stainless or aluminum)
Series 70 firing system
Steel frame
Single stack
So given my price limit, what are my options in a new stock or semi-custom gun? I know I can't afford a Baer, Brown, or Nighthawk new. I can't find prices on Colts anyplace. I've been looking at Fusion, and I like some of their offerings in my price range, but I'd like to see what else is out there, that I may not know about.
