45 ACP

Best 45 ACP, money no object. 1911 or other full size……go

 

[E.Shell]

9mm is better.

This is a false flag

I have a Springfield TRP in .45 and love it. Smooth, accurate, and didn't break the bank.

9mm is better.

Combine the best features of both and get a .40.

The Glock 21, Glock 30, Glock 36, and Glock 41 are the major variants that are manufactured in .45 ACP.
Each of these handguns has it’s versions that differ in size and functionality.

Thanks, will take a look. Was focused on Wilson and Les.

Nighthawk Custom has some fantastic 1911s. Pick your poison on the model:

My Tisas/SDS 1911A1 US. Army.

So pretty…

 

[teratos]

9mm is better.

According to the FBI, no difference between modern defensive 9mm and 45 ACP ammo in terms of incapacitation. 9mm give advantages including weight, size and capacity.

So…agree.

Well, those are definitely a step higher up the ladder of excellence and price. But there is a point of diminishing returns, too. Perhaps you can find an indoor range that rents a few different models to try out.

 

[Tomcat]

For the money a Ruger SR1911 is a good deal. Also some of the Kimbers depending on the model

Owned a Les Baer Premier II in the past. Sold it because it was too much gun price wise for how much I shot it. If going Les Baer, I would get one with their carry package. Mine had a decent amount of sharp edges.

Atlantic Guns had several Baer’s in the case last time I went a couple months ago.

Baltimore’s best Pawn usually has a nice selection of standard and high dollar 1911s. Been awhile since I’ve been there though.
