| I've got an AAC Ti-rant 45 incoming, and eventually I'd like to get a 1911 with a threaded barrel from the factory. As far as I know, Sig is the only company that offers models with a threaded barrel. Are there any I'm missing? |

I've had the threaded Remington R1 and it was "ok".
I liked that it had tall suppressor sights and a threaded barrel. There's no magwell, no checkering, no rail - it's a basic 1911. It goes bang. 
I flipped the R1 and moved up to the Sig Sauer TacOps. For a factory gun - this thing is SWEET. It has a great trigger. It comes with a one piece magwell and has a rail and the front strap is checkered - all big pluses in my book. It does have an external extractor - don't be deterred it WORKS. I'm really enjoying my Sig. I shoot it at local steel matches. 
Kimber now offers the awkwardly named TLE/RL II (TFS) ....I just call it "Can I buy a vowel" This gun is interesting to me because it is in available in cheap to shoot 9mm. ...as far as I know it's the only factory threaded 9mm 1911 available. I've fondled this gun at my LGS. The grips have to go! The mainspring housing is PLASTIC - many people will want to swap this for a steel one-piece magwell. It also has a FLGR. Changing to a GI guide rod is easy if it bugs you. ....for me, I'd have to throw a few bucks at this gun to get it where I'd like.

Quoted:Neg, STI as well. I stand corrected - it looks like you can get the Tactical model with a threaded barrel. A while back I was looking at the 9mm Trojan and 9mm Spartan. I didn't recall a threaded option for those guns. ....but then again, it is STI. You can pretty much get anything configured any way you want. |

They sell threaded bull barrels, so you're probably GTG if you asked really nicely on a model w/ bull barrel. |
