Here is the deal. Dad wants a 1911, but is unwilling to spend the $$$ on a "good one." I'm trying to steer him away from the 1911 just to get him into something good without spending a bundle. Is there a decent 1911 that will suit him. He is not going to range a lot, it is simply for his retired security position. I did get him talked into saving a bit on going with a 9mm 1911. So what is your experience and recommendations?
