Well, I narrowed it down to two models. The Stainless TLE II full size or the Stainless TLE II Pro model. It wont be for carry. I currently dont have a full size 1911, but im still not sure. What do you guys think?

Since you won't carry it and you don't have one, I would definitely get the full size. Some inspiration (sorry it's not the stainless model):

I was leaning towards the full size. I dont generally carry a 1911 because most my 1911 collection consists of high end models that normally have work done to them and I would cry if I had to use it for defense then got taken by the boys in blue. You would be lucky to get it back in the same condition it left you if not at all. Thats why I carry a glock 23, 27 or my smith 642 j frame. They get the job done and if I lose it, no big deal. I like the full size for obvious benifits but it's also a classic. I love the history behind the full size 1911.
