I'm looking at a 1911 when I get home. I've got a SIG P226, but who can resist the lure of the 1911? I've narrowed it down to the Rock River Arms Pro Carry and the Ed Brown Special Forces. I looked at Nighthawk, but that's a little too "tactical" for me. I don't need the hi-speed, lo-drag, Ramboized pistol. What I do need is a full-size, all-steel, 5" Government model, nicely blued with some decent-looking wood grips. Very old-school classic. Thing is, I wanted to get the best internals I could find. You can get a 1911 that looks similar for a lot less, but if it's all show and no go, then it's not doing me a whole lot of good.
Have you had any experience with either of the two manufacturers? From the gun rags, they're in a dead heat, but then it would behoove a gun writer to write good things, now wouldn't it? Thanks for any input you can provide.
