So maybe the Kimber or a high spec Springfield. I've got one and it's quite good but I've gone back to using a CZ75 9mm because it's easier to use with speed steel shoots.
Sage advice . . . ask around. A patient of mine, former LAPD detective sold me one of his extra 1911s. Vintage 1943, apparently saw action in WW2, Korea, and Viet Nam. Solid shooter. A steal at $500.

. . . yea I lucked out.
