I've owned many 1911 pistols over the last 30 years. It all started with an old Colt Combat Commander in the 80s which was a really nice gun. The later Colts were junk. The Kimbers I had were junk. The Fusions I had were really nice. The Ed Brown I had was really something. These days I've settled on a couple of Nighthawks, a T3 and an Enforcer so I think I'm done now as I have the best.
