CZ's, of course. Excellent in all respects - I don't know why they aren't among the biggest sellers in the American market. They're handsome, reliable, accurate, can go cocked and locked or DA, soft-recoiling, have great ergonomics and are less expensive than most quality pistols.
Among the departed: Star BM, BKM, and Firestar. Great little 1911-style guns, without the silly grip safety and high price.
