Buying the best entry level 1911 is like buying the best entry level AR, lots of choices. I carried a Springfield Loaded on duty for about 12 years and all I did to it was put a Novak tritium front and rear sight on it, a S&A mag well and a crisp 4 lb trigger. Would of been 3 lbs. but department policy said nothing under 4 lbs. I liked it because I could hit with it and it went bang when I pressed the trigger. What more could a guy expect from a fighting hand gun ?
The Range Officer sounds like a good choice.
