I had a 4in RIA 1911, but I sold it.

Way too troublesome.

I would save $200 more and get the Ruger SR1911.

BUT the metro arms is decent and can be had for around $500 iirc

If you want to spend around $500 go with a metro arms American classic.

DO NOT spend less than $550 on a 1911. You will end up putting atleast $100 into it if you do.

Bass Pro had a Remington 1911 for $729. Is the Ruger better?

I was looking at this Para:

and this Springfield:

until I picked up the Sig Nightmare.

Looks like pretty good pricing for both guns.

I almost got a helluva deal on a Nightmare on gunbroker Monday. Lost it in the last few minutes.
