I am not a 1911 guru but I've had Springfield Ronin, Rock Island ultra , Llama, and my current Bul Armory Commanders (9mm&45 bought matching pair ) are way better than any of the others . Fit, finish, accuracy, trigger .... All much better. A friend of mine has a Dan Wesson 9mm ( for got which exact model) but he liked the Bul better then his own ....
