[QUOTE="mmchambers06, post: 1224671, member: 4445"] Here's the deal...I want to shoot some USPSA single stack here in a bit and I've been hankering for a decently built 1911 as my next handgun purchase. The models that have intrigued me so far are STI's Trojan and Springfield's Loaded Target, but I've also considered springing (ha) for the TRP or Trophy Match for a few hundred more. Any other models I should be looking at? Finish isn't a huge deal to me, but fit certainly is. I want a tight gun. Sloppy grip safeties bug the hell out of me and I don't even own a 1911. Checkered front strap would be nice as well. I should mention that I plan on shooting the crap out of it and keeping it forever, so longevity is a factor, too. Could I have a better gun built for $1,500? Or if I make that price jump should I go for a Baer? I have a long way to go in Production, so I'm fairly patient. :rotflmao: For you SS IPSC guys, any advantage to a .40 S&W in this division? I've shot a couple of .40 2011s and recoil was ridiculously non-existent. [/QUOTE]
