    Had a Les Baer a few years ago that was probably the finest pistol I've ever owned. Regretfully I had to sell it after my heart attack for financial reasons. I truly miss that pistol.

    It gets my vote... I had a 5 inch Premiere and it was the finest shooting, most reliable, 45 I have ever shot...... Plus cheaper than a Wilson/Night Hawk....:rockwoot:
    I am still not sure why I sold it..... Momentary lapse of sanity....

    Kimber, sig, SA, colt, and S&W should be removed from the list.

    All of those are mass production guns.


    That said, if they were still being made I'd vote for a 10-8 being highest on the list with a nighthawk closely afterwards.

    I'm a little biased but I just love my Kimber Grand Raptor II. It is from the "Custom Shop" of Kimber.......

    I've owned SA, STI, Sig and Para 1911s with my most current being a Colt Rail Gun. While the Colt has been the nicest I've OWNED to date, it still has a long way to go to be on par with the Ed Brown Special Forces I had the privilege to fondle recently...

    Brown gets my vote and hopefully my money someday.

    And add Volkmann. There are quite a few other pure custom shops, but it would be hard to do a good job polling those.
