I would go and have several, 1911's and one conversion kit. The kit allows me to shoot 22 cal. on the cheap. Having used a 1911 on the pistol team as well as in combat, the gun is hard to beat. It will take anything you put it thru. Lots of after market parts and upgrades. The design is over a hundred years old and is still used in competition. One of the very good things about the 1911 is if you run out of ammo you can beat the other guy to death with the gun. I do belive the colts are overrated, I have two. Remington and Ruger have just come out with thier own 1911. I just purchased a Remington, the gun is a mil spce type nothing fancy but a good weapon. You could go high end, Ed Brown, Kimber, or a custom maker. Just my 2 cents.
