I agree with best-fit approach. Looks are only "skin-deep". Don't forget too the best fit for concealed carry. I suspect that in the end, the 1911 will serve you best. I do agree with you that both pistols are excellent. I used to say to people buy both. But, there is a problem with shooting both. To the extent that you desire to develop extraordinary shooting ability, firing an assortment of pistols will hold you back. Case and point.
When I walk into Target Sport for an afternoon of shooting, unpack 12 or 13 pistols and begin to fire them, switching back and forth. On one day, the workers at Target Sports observed of me, and to my Advanced Tactical Shooting Instructor, “...he shoots everything well! He can shoot Glock, Browning, 1911s...doesn't matter. You can give him any gun, a gun he’s never seen and he can shoot it equally well!" The instructors looked to me and commented, "If you really want to develop perfection, shoot only one pistol or revolver, and only one! Do not even hold any other pistol! Handle and fire only one! You will develop perfection with that one."
I know for fact that this concept is true. I have known it for years, and learned it from experience. I used to own only 1 pistol, and thus shoot only one…a Kimber 1911 Custom Classic Target .45 ACP (series I). Since beginning to fire many different pistols, I shoot worse, even though I practice more. If park all of my other pistols, and fire only one, within a week or two, I shoot that pistol significantly better.
And, so I now face the dilemma you have, but in reverse. Do I retain all, or sell all but one class of pistol? If so, which to sell? I like my Glocks, my BHP, my 1911s, and true enough, I shoot all pistols equally well…until I revert to exclusivity. Then, I fire one pistol better than any other. In the end, when shooting exclusively, I shoot a 1911 the best. So, do I sell all of my other pistols, retain only my 1911s, and shoot them exclusively? Probably not, first, because I am not a competitive shootist. If I were to take up professional, competitive shooting I would.
But, there is a deeper issue. Not all 1911s have equal fit and feel. Some 1911s are true to the Mil Spec meassurements and some are not. Even my Colt 1911 reissue is different from my Colt Series 70 reissue and that is different than my two Colt XSEs. In the end, I am not prepared to sell all except literally 1, single pistol.
Sorry for the long response, but I do take this topic so very seriously! No other person’s opinion than your own means diddly! If you are comfortable and confident with your firearm, you will do better. In the end, fit is king.
