I looked at a Wilson .45 that turned me on Today and got me interested in renewing a Old .45 flame! My Question is this: What is the best .45 in your factual opinion for around$1500. to $2000.00? I liked the finish on the wilson professional(tuff finish?). Also does the shorter barrel pistols shoot noticeably less accurate? Hammer Over

You can't go wrong with any of them. I have a Les Baer TRS that has been great. Everyone who shoots it is very impressed, and they all comment on how it just feels like such a quality firearm. Mine just hit 1500 rounds with ZERO problems - thats with shooting all sorts of ammo and using several brands of mags.

+1 for the basic carry. I love mine just wish it had night sights.

I looked into alot of the highend 1911s and bought a Ed Brown. I don't think there is a wrong answer but definitely hold and play with all before you buy. I liked the Wilson 1911s until I saw the SS Brown. The fit and finish did it for me.

Does anyone know if the warrior pistol from Kimber has a blued finish or coating. My thing is this, I don't want to buy a pistol and carry it for a couple months and it look ancient! I think when ya drop a couple grand it should already have a finish that will hang on.

I have a Warrior and it is holding up well. Better than some Blued guns I have had.

I would buy a rock river if i was going custom. their front straps look ridiculous in terms of the high cut and checkering. And you know what, other than going boom, thats all I care about!

In that price range they are all about the same quality and very accurate. Buy one that turns YOU on.
Personally I prefer the Baers, then RRA, and Brown and Wilson. But then again I hate the look of paint and snakeskin, so that's just me. |

In that price range, Baer, then RRA.
I've been very happy with my Baer PII 1.5". Bought it used with 142 rounds through it. Of course, you could buy a SA Milspec and send it to Yost Bonitz. |
