I am having much trouble saying no to a slightly used Guardian right now, and at $1200 it isn't easy. I am leaning more towards the Guardian due to the reduced weight making it far easier to EDC. Being cheaper is also nice.Pawpaw wrote:A couple of weeks ago, DevilDawg was busy picking my brain in PM about the Guardian & V-Bob.

LOL. I just have to make due with my Ruger full size 1911 until I get mine I guess. While I am sorry your Ruger was bad, twice, my full size has had no issues. It will be replaced as an EDC by a Guardian or V-Bob. Soon I hope.
There is no comparison between any of the Rugers and the Dan Wessons, as you would expect in view of the huge price difference between them.
You're in for a treat if you go for any of the models you listed.

Re: Ruger 1911 Commander .45 Problem
We all realize and empathize the pain you are experiencing. I have a couple of Ruger firearms (or did prior to that boating accident), and had to send my mini back 3 times. They finally got it fixed and it is fun shooter again. I agree with the original thought, send it back to Ruger as you paid for a functional pistol. If they can make it right the third time tell them to replace it. Politely, but firmly. You purchased this to be a EDC and right now it isn't capable of range time let alone SD. Keep us posted.
