Hello,
As I'm entirely new to the autoloader 1911 world of handguns, I figured I'd ask here and get some second opinions. I've been looking at the Springfield Armory PX9151LP and PX9154LP as well as the Kimber Pro TLE/RL II. I believe it was the Pro TLE/RL II that I was looking at as it had on the front bottom of the casing the notches to slide a light or attachment onto (???) and a solid black finish.
From what I have been able to find, they are all very nice auto's with little problems. I know its been beat to death, but if anyone could through some experience in I'd be grateful . The pricing for each was roughly:
SA PX9151LP: $750
SA PX9154LP: $950
Kimber Pro TLE/RL II: $760 on sale for $640 (assuming this is the right model?)
Overall that is more than I was initially looking at spending since my first choice was the XD-45 ACP at $550, but the look of the 1911's turns me on even more even at a higher price and reduce clip count. I was initially set on a stainless finish with a wooden style grip for the style, but am willing to go with anything else that looks just as nice.
Thank you for the help,
Brian
