When I was much younger and ignorant I never bought into accurizing 1911’s. I thought that nothing on earth in my hands could outshoot my Colt Gold Cup.
Then I shot a Wilson Combat. Boy was I ever wrong! Now I have 2 Wilson’s and a Les Baer among a plethora of the other common brands. For me, the closest thing to those high end pistols are my STI’s at half the price. My Sig 1911 would be a close second at less than $1000.

Yup==Me as well. I was always a Colt hoarder. I still love Colt, but the custom gun makers really do create works of art. One of my goals--to have one 1911 from the big 4: Les Baer, Wilson Combat, Brown, and Nighthawk. I also want to have one each of the three generations of Colt SAA. Those are the only guns that I care to have more than one in my collection.
I guess I could own a Guncrafter as well. Oh man--life is too short and money too tight!!!
