Since the government is sending me money that I’m opposed to, I’m gonna get a 1911. I don’t think they should send our tax $$$ to people that are still working. Anyway which 1911 should I buy?

Ruger 10mm. Whatever you get, get a 10mm.
As an alternative suggestion, sig P220 Legion SAO 10mm would be my "burn 1200" gun

I’ve been eyeing the new Kimber Rapide (Black Ice). Comes in 9mm, 45 acp, and 10mm. It’s a little pricy but sweet looking.

I love my smith and Wesson E. Well balanced gun. Beautiful.
My wife is also a really good shot with it.

I own a Remington R1. Not expensive, shoots good, and just nice overall. I would love to have a CRP 1911.

They are sending you your own money...just don’t be shocked when your refund isn’t as big this time next year

I went with a ruger SR1911 after watching one of Bapple's video reviews of it. He knows his stuff. It is a fantastic pistol

Don’t get a 10mm.
You will be disappointed And will end up selling it. Then, you will have a hard time selling it.
The new Kimbers have real quality issues. If you buy one, high likelihood you will be sending it in for factory work.
Springfield’s have a good reputation. I’ve never heard anything bad about the Ruger or Remington 1911s either.
I have a pair of Sig 1911s. Really nice and very accurate. Great fit and finish. Would absolutely get another.
One other option. Find an older Kimber. I do have a kimber compact 1911 that is probably 15 years or older. Awesome gun. My daily carry. And it looks like it:). Very accurate and dependable.

I have the Springfield mil spec that's a good entry level gun. Haven't shot it too much, plan on putting a flat mainspring housing on it.
If I were to buy again I think I'd go with the Ruger Commander. I'm on my 3rd 1911 and I used to dislike the Commander versions, but they have grown on me big time.
P.S. A 1911 is supposed to lob big .45 caliber sized chunks out the barrel. If you get one, do it right.

Ruger SR1911 10mm. 3 range trips, 200rds/session, no failures and is a pleasure to shoot. Accurate too if you do your part.

Colt Government Model Mk IV 70 series Only way to go.
Hey, it's what I got, I got to throw it out there.

Colt Delta Elite,,,,,had one for about 5 years. Never an issue, if you know how to shoot, recoil is easily manageable, whip that thing out an er’body wants to handle it.

Dan Wesson. Best bang for the buck in the 1911 world without spending $2500+ for a Wilson, Baer, Ed Brown, Nighthawk..

Personally, I would buy a Colt Gold Cup National Match 70 series. Classic pistol that will never lose value

Love my Kimber Raptor II
... in 45 of course
