[QUOTE="septic_shock, post: 2593056, member: 5322"] I've been thinking about picking up my first 1911. I had a chance to handle two guns that I liked: ruger sr1911 and a springfield parkerized mil spec. I walked out of the store because I just couldn't decide. I prefer the classic look of the mil spec, but wasn't sure if I would need a beaver tail or not, like what is found on the ruger. The ruger is nice with all the standard stuff. I'm also wondering about the sights. The ruger has novaks, butt the springer is staked. They both looked fine me, but I know that it is a major hassle to change the sights on the mil spec. What do you think? I would like to make either of these guns my primary carry. Any other models I should look at? [/QUOTE]
