List the Top 1911’s in order

[Porter Rockwell]

You guys think I should have titled this thread... A 1911 is a 1911 is 1911?

Just glad we don’t have to worry about staking a castle nut on a 1911

Is that a REAL 1911 or one of those after 1918 1911's?

ok... so I am admittedly not much of a 1911 guy. Someone asked me the other day what the top 1911’s were. Based on my limited shooting, handling and research here is my list. A lot of you guys know a lot more than I do. A list like this is sure to generate some anger and debate. I really would like to know how you real 1911 guys rank these.

1) Les Baer
2) Wilson Combat
3) Ed Brown
4) Colt
5) Springfield Armory

Ok fire away guys!

The one that is most reliable and accurate in your hands.

No, but a standard style front seat requires staking.

If it's not a Colt, it's just a copy/ clone.

Seriously, Colts have always worked great for me.

Glock was going to end up in this thread eventually. I just went ahead and got it out of the way.

This ought to keep both sides happy . . . . .
