    Okay...my ten cents worth. I have a Taurus 1911 that I paid 588.00 for and it is just one fine piece of equipment. The warranty and the price were the things that convience me to close the deal. I shoot it often and I don't see why people invest mega bucks in the plastic models. At least, buy a 1911 to start with, from what ever manufacture you wish, and you'll have and excuse to buy one of the designer guns later. Or even better, buy yourself a 1911 in 22 caliber for a play & practice gun. I've also had a SIG 226 and a XD 45. I still have the Taurus and the others are no longer. The XD looked like my cordless electric drill so I found it another home.

    i think the 1911 guns you have to have the right hand for them (MY opinion) if you have a bigger hand i would go with a glock, or a springfield xd or xdm... the 1911 guns for me are far to narrow, i just picked up a Springfield xdm45 with 4.5" barrel... I LOVE this pistol... go to a good shop and have them get one of each style out and hold it or fondle it i guess
