[QUOTE="Tailgate, post: 4159224, member: 54870"] Man, that selection is sort of all over the place. My first question is, what is your shooting experience and what are you using it for? For plinking at the range, versus matches, versus daily carry...it's all different. Personally, I would pick a solid carry / practical match (like IDPA) gun like a Springfield 1911 or a Glock 17/34/19 and just put 20k-30k of rounds down it. Not saying this is YOUR case...but I hate it when people say "Doesn't this gun look really bad@$s???" I always respond, "No, forget the gun...make YOURSELF the bad@$s!!!" If this isn't the case and you are simply looking to spend money, probably the Staccato. But frankly, I really didn't like them as much as a standard or double stack 1911...the composite double-stack frame just didn't feel right, the checkering was too aggressive, etc. Then you have to deal with periodically fixing your 2011 mags when they get slightly out of adjustment, etc....
