Mine would be the same 1911 I carry nearly every day.

As a little kid growing up here in TX, I was always fascinated by the old time TX Rangers, who mostly carried Ivory gripped custom engraved1911's in a floral carved El Paso Saddlery Tom Threeperson's holsters.

If you ever get a chance to visit the TX Ranger Museum in Waco, TX, they have on exhibit some fine examples of old 1911's that were actually carried by Rangers.
