what would you recommend.take in mind this will be my first 1911.i looking

Pretend for the moment that there was such a thing as a Ferrari that wasn't temperamental. And let's say you're in the market for a sportscar. Are you more likely to want a Ferrari, even with the expense, or a Vette?

all im asking is a simple question and some advice....
riddles i can do with out please...if you have advice
im willing to accept but if i have to solve a puzzle
don't respond.

were talking somewhere in the ballpark of $1,200 to$2,200
give or take of my money...serious money deserves serious
response

thanks.

Maybe some time proofreading your post content would garner a more serious response. What you're personally looking for in a pistol besides a general sweeping comment would bode well for you.

Java, nothing wrong with your choices. My 1911 is a Colt, but that's not magic just because it has the little horse on the side. Now I like the looks and finish of some of the more expensive 1911's, but do I think they are more reliable than lower cost 1911's.....no. I Always have to remind myself that the most reliable 1911 I ever owned was a used Remington Rand I purchased for $45 when I got out of the Army. We are talking many years ago.

Anyway, try this site.

[javabum]

No, you don't. If you will not even provide capital letters to start a sentence and place apostrophe's where needed, then you don't qualify to be a member due to the constant violation of forum rules.
