I have other 9MMs none are "1911", all are dbl stack, some alloy, some steel. I have an older (76) Belgium Browning, so I don't need one of those.

No offense to anyone but I Don't want plastic.

I'm considering the 1911 option, mostly thinking commander sized alloy frame. I may carry it some, but that isn't a primary consideration as I have others that are better suited.

I like the rounded butt, I have a couple 1911s in that configuration and a Ruger SR CMD1911 45ACP modified with the "bobtail" that I like a lot.

I'm thinking the Alloy Ruger SR1911 CMD in 9mm and do the bobtail again.
I like that they are using a ramped barrel, as my other alloy 9MMs use a ramped barrel and I've had no issues with them.

Who has one or used one (Ruger CMD 9mm 1911)?

How have they performed?

What else should I consider in a 1911 style in this price range? I figure I'll have about $1000 in it with the mods
(grips, bobtail, FO optic FS)?

Thanks for your help and input,
AJD



There is no accounting for taste.

Experience is a great thing as long as one survives it.

Generally, there ain't a lot that separates the two however,
Barely making it is a whole lot more satisfying than barely not making it.
