I like Colt and Springfield 1911s and H&Ks but might be out of your price range.
Bang for buck I think the EAA Witness is the best deal out there. |

I don't know about the EEA in .45 yet but my two in 10mm are outstanding. I have a conversion in .22 and 9mm, when finances allow I'll get one in .45.

The best shooting 1911 for under $700 in my opinion is the Remington R1. It functions flawlessly out of the box and is very accurate plus it has the best mags I have ever seen on a 1911.

go buy yourself a Rock Island 1911 base model and do your own upgrades.
unless you can throw down a grand of course! I think maybe the new Sig 1911 are double action....no idea...but they should be! |

I love the 1911, but the HK USP45 has got me stumped.Simply cause it polymer, but I still trust the steel more though. So same response as everyone else.

I looked at a Colt .45 at the gunshop last week,it was a smaller version 8 rd single stack mag and instead of sights it had a groove down down the center,,,it fit my smallish hands real well and came to my eye quick but I think it would be better with a Crimson Trace laser grip sight,I wish I could remeber the model but I do know it was about 900$ NIB

RIA guns are great guns for the money and they have great customer service and like a lot of gun companies these days offer a life time warranty.
