Re: Debating on a new 1911

I have several Colts and a Kimber Crimson Carry but unfortunately no Springfield 1911s yet. Both my Colts and Kimber are very reliable and accurate and I carry the Kimber regularly. I have put a lot of rounds down the tube and have never experienced any of the Kimber horror stories that I see around the web, even during the break in period. I use Wilson Combat magazines primarily as well as some Chip McCormick and have no problems. In the past I would have occasional problems with my Colts when using cheap magazines, but since I wised up and started buying quality magazines, they run perfect. I think you will be very happy with either the Kimber, Colt or Springfield offerings, though there are other good options too.
:tiphat:

Edited to add:
The next 1911 I buy will probably be an STI. I have browsed them at my favorite gun store and I am impressed with the line up. While I would enjoy getting a high dollar custom 1911, but it is hard for me to justify with the wife!
