i have been comtemplating getting a 1911 for some time now. i have it basically narrowed down to 3. Springfield mil spec, springfield Gi 45, and colt ww1 replica. I am looking for the best reliability and quality. what would you recommend?

I personally prefer the kimber though if your open to another brand. The LAPD carries them exclusively(as far as i know) and the one I own has never jammed in the 5000 rounds that ive put through it.

Since you have so much confidence with the Springfield, would you please tell us what kind of groups you've been able to shoot with it vs. the Kimber?sniperdog-alpha1 said:I have money that the springfield TRP operator will out shoot WHATEVER kimber comes its way. I know, I get to shoot everything, one of the perks of the job.
