A little late to the party - but I have several handguns - in the semi auto, protection class I have three. I managed to pick up a new P229 super cheap (many years ago- it was one of a LEO overrun that were special ordered. .40 cal, short reach, short reset trigger, short extractor, E2 grip and it was "melted" (corners and stuff milled down) in the custom shop. Picked this beauty up for about 6 bills. I only wish I could shoot it well. But it sure is pretty. I also have another Sig - one of the late model P365's. Say what you will about them (the shooting world has) but it's a darn good shooter and super easy to conceal. And the reason for this post - an SR1911 CMD. Of the three, the SR1911 is the shooter of the group. It points naturally, fits perfectly, good trigger and smooth as butter. I've found the Hornady 200 grain (NOT the +P) is its favorite food. Light recoil, heavier than a 185 and hollow point. It wouldn't be my go to in my home, and in all but cold weather the 365 gets the nod. But when the sweatshirts come out, so does the ruger. As others have noted the 45 ammo is pricey but the ease at which the SR1911 shoots requires less practice, so I guess it evens out. I'd buy it again at the price I bought it the first time in a heartbeat.
