    Hi,

    Can you recommend the a 1911 in 9mm?

    I want a 9mm because that is what caliber I shoot in my other handguns, and I can't or don't want to pay the price for .45ACP.

    I'd also don't want to spend $2,000 or even $1,000 for a custom 1911 like Wilson Combat, etc.

    It would be for competition and not duty or life saving use.

    So are there any sub $1,000 1911's that are reasonably reliable considering we have a local 1911 gunsmith like yourself available in case of issues?

    I don't want to have to use a gunsmith all the time so it has to be reasonably reliable, but I don't need perfection either if it's going to cost $2,000.

    Thanks,
    Jim
