IMO, WC is one of the finest 1911's you can buy.   They are very expensive though and getting more expensive by the year.  However, a used WC can still be had at a reasonable price and you can rest assured that the WC will satisfactorily address any performance issues you may encounter; they're customer service is amongs the best in the business.

Meh.  Thats it.  Janky clip on mag wells apparently command a premium.  

I'd look at the SA Custom Shop, but thats just me.  Afterall, if your gonna dump that kind of scratch on a 1911. it might as well be customized to you.

Comparing SA Custom Shop to Wilson's is ridiculous.

seriously no comparison.

Wilson is MILES ahead.

For some wild reason, I don't care for the look of most Wilson's I see. I can't explain it, they are amazing 1911's some of the best money can buy but it seems 90%+ of them there is something I just don't like. I think I am crazy.

If you can afford it and find one you like or want to have them build you one, go for it. I'm a fan of Ed Brown, Les Baer, and Dan Wessons myself but Wilson 1911's are good to go to say the least.

Good things to know. Really didnt think about SA custom shop, I have 2 SA's in a .40 and a .9mm. I like the quality the feel and the accuracy of them.

My .40 I swear feels like they took a mold of my hand and built the gun around that.

Think if I am going to spend that kind of money I am gonna look at the SA and see what they got.

Thanks to all of yall for giving your thoughts. Its appreciated!!!
