Anyone have a Taurus? I've been looking at one, reviews seem pretty good.
I have a PT-1911. It's a great gun for the money and it has a lifetime warranty.

I have read a lot of reviews on the Taurus and just about every one seems to love them. The price is almost to good to be true for a quality 1911. I am pretty sure I'll be the owner of a shiny new PT-1911 this time next week.
Get some Chip McCormick custom ten round magazines for that puppy. More power.

It is tough to beat a 1911 built to original GI specs. The only modification would be throating the barrel if you plan on using hollow points.
And lowering the ejection port.
And the better sights mentioned.
And a beaver tail grip safety because slide bite sucks.
And a commander hammer because a spur hammer and beavertail don't mix
Maybe a larger thumb safety for more positive engagement.
Some front strap checkering would be nice in a humid day
An undercut trigger guard can reduce muzzle flip
Maybe some nice custom grips
And so on, and so on....
Out of the box, I am an STI fanIf money was not a concern, what brand of 1911 would you trust your life with? Yes, I’m aware there are more reliable platforms out there, but humor me. I just have a love of the 1911 and its history. It is pure Americana.
I put a pair of Hogue rubber grips on my 1911. I had to slightly modify the grips to handle the ambi safety mine has, but they make for a very pleasant shooting experience.

No idea about reliable, but sure looks nice to me.

Those are all nice, but throating and lower ejection port are for better function.
