Philippine wimmenz, yup. Philippine pistols, not so much. I'm kind partial to the Canadian models, though it's mostly because I like 'em stacked.

Kimbers (I have a TLE/RL with evil but functional external extractor)
Rock Island if you want to go cheap

A lot of folks don't like 'em, but I love my Taurus 1911. Good value on a loaded pistol. For a more basic one, the Rock Islands are supposed to be good value.

Mostly look at it, put it on a shelf, dust it off every once and a while.

Springfield's look to be a decent buy.

Great, something else I'll to save up for.
Probably in the $1500~$2000 range, no doubt.

Very nice! Aside from the adjustable rear sight, very "MEU/SOCish"!

I have several Colt's.

I recommend them very highly.

Just after Colt, I recommend Kimber.

That's no shit.

I've bought 3, all this year.

Look at the Springfield Loaded or TRP. If you're on a low budget, well, they aren't hard to find. I'd recomend going with a full sized model. They conceal just fine and you get more out of them.

I have been rocking a High Standard 1911, built by ArmsCor. Owned it 2 months, everyday carry, 600 rounds down the pipe. 6 different types of ammo, have not cleaned it yet, zero problems, no FTF's, no FTE's no no problems.

Best part: $450, out the door with tax.
