I found myself in a similar boat a while back.
The biggest hurdle I had to jump was how much MIM(metal injection molded) parts I wanted in my gun, if any at all.
I couldnt afford a Wilson Combat and the 1911s that I had my eyes on had more MIM than I personally cared for. Suprisingly, the Sig GSR revolution has far less MIM than big name 1911s that cost hundreds more. This was a choice and still is if I decide to take the plunge again.
However, after further research I finalized my decision to a Dan Wesson 1911.
I have heard nothing but good about these and since the use Ed Brown parts, there is no MIM. They are moderately priced offer a variety of configurations.
Here would be my choices:
Wilson Combat
Dan Wesson
SIG GSR revolution
Custom build with forged frame/slide and Wilson Compat parts...
"Everyone has been given a gift in life. Some people have a gift for science and some have a flair for art. And warriors have been given the gift of aggression. They would no more misuse this gift than a doctor would misuse his healing arts, but they yearn for the opportunity to use their gift to help others. These people, the ones who have been blessed with the gift of aggression and a love for others, are our sheepdogs. These are our warrior"
