Both Colt pistols as a Colt is the only true 1911.

First gun is my newest $350 acquisition. Its an 80's series, all original, including the craptastic finish. The second is my $580 acquisition - a 70's series with Ed Brown and McCormick upgrades and a nice colt grey finish. Gun breaks super smooth and is damn accurate with the Bomar sights.

Edited to add the new kid:

My Officers ACP, my RIA 1911 clone and my newest acquisition, a 1960 Sistema Model 27.

Yeah yeah, I know. Hogues on a Sistema, "that's just not right"

. It is what I had in the box to replace the disentegrating original grips. There will be checkered walnut on it eventually.

I picked up some original grips on Ebay and the Sistema looks much better now.

While you should be able to finish most encounters with one magazine of ammunition, it's considered good form to be topped up when the police arrive to clean things up.

LOL! That first one made me have to think for a second or two before I figured it out. Nice creativity.
