I prefer the Kimber, but have nothing bad to say about the Sig.
Either would be good. :thumbsup2:

Generally nice 1911's don't come with a threaded barrel. They are more common on $700 nice-ish 1911's. I second the idea of getting a Dan Wesson and adding a threaded barrel if you choose to.



This is the one I own... and I love it I can hit a tire rim at 50+ yards every time.

That looks great, except it's exactly twice as expensive as I was looking at.

Ops that Remington I linked to in my first post. What's a "WC match"?

Not experienced with 45 cal pistols so please take this with a grain of salt

Have you considered STI? One of the guys at the Capital City match in Littlerock frequently shot an STI Trojan .45. Very nice gun.
Might be worth a look at their website to see if they have an option for barrel threading when you order.

Thanks for the correction. I was thinking the Trojan model was around the $1000-$1100 mark. They're going for around $1400 on GunBroker, maybe less for a used model.

They used to be cheaper, but prices went up.
The only threaded 1911 model they have is the host 4.0/5.0. That one goes for big money.

That doesn't look too horrible. Have you shot one? How are they? I could buy that and a 1000 rounds of .45 and still be under 1k.

Yes, I have the original GI series, but I don't have a threaded barrel. Yet. It's my favorite pistol at the range. Smooth, reliable and did I say fun? I have not carried mine but it doesn't mind because it's always the first to go in the range bag. I'm sure your LGS will get you into that gun for well less than the listed MSRP too. They have a ton of other threaded models to choose from. When your done with it, I'll take it off your hands for you. ;)

Okay I just looked at every pistol I could find on their site, and that one you linked is the only one I could find with a threaded barrel. Am I blind?
