Need your help in making my mind up!

Just got back from the range shooting my new XD9 which was dead on with, and didn't have 1 jam during 150rounds. Love this gun - bought a Blackhawk Sepra for it too tonight which I see what all the fuss is about with them haha.

The last two months I've picked up - SR9-full size, XD9-compact and a Taurus PT111-sub. Obviously I'm hooked on this new sport for me - ESP since I stil can't golf or play softball thanks to the weather. I'm not only ready for a larger caliber, but really want a 1911. This site hasn't helped either haha. Love the history, design, weight, feel.....etc and sure I'll love shooting one from what I've read on here.

Question - how do you feel about a / AM Tactical Titan 45ACP - compact? It's new and priced at $499.95 which I'm thinking I can probably get for $460 or so.

I'm looking at another 1911 on here from another INGO member, but wanted to get input. The price seems right - if I spend too much more I think the gf is going to use one of these guns to shoot me!!

Heck, just get one of each and you can get rid of one later if you don't like it! Or just give it to me!

I'd have to recommend a commander or full sized. 1911's should be high quality and I'd have trouble purchasing one that isn't of the best pedigree.

Neither. Save the $$. Buy lots of 9mm ammo and practice with what you have.

Shoot a friends 45 if you must scratch the itch.

I'd start with a full size 1911 if it were me. Just from a purist standpoint. Really any 1911 if manufactured to spec will do fine. But be warned those guns are like AR's the mods are addictive. I have Taurus PT1911 that was a great shooter, but its now on my bench getting a full melt and Ed Brown internal's. That's my 2 cents worth.
