I'm want to move up from 9mm to .45 and I have decided that a 1911 style pistol is what's next. I really like the Ed Brown Kobra Carry, and if someone wants to give me about $1500, I will go get one.
The reality of the situation is that I want to spend in the neighborhood of about $600, but would be willing to spend more with convincing arguments (of course, I also wouldnt mind spending less).
what are the pro's and con's of the the different gun makers?
Having never shot a custom gun, are the ed browns, valeo, etc. guns really worth the 200-300% premium? and why?
It will definately be a shooter and likely a carry gun, if and when I get accurate and comfortable enough with it.
also, what's the difference between a 1911 and a 1911A1?
thanks &
