$1000 to spend on two pistols!

[Hunter88]

I want something with a rail for HD. Local ad has a 75b two tone for 500. But no rail.

what about an H&K of some sort?
these are very good weapons.
i have a USP compact two tone in.40, it is an excellent weapon.

Pretty good price for that. I don't think they make the 2 Tone any longer.

How about a Bersa Thunder 380cc for concealed carry (under $300) which leaves $700 or so for a nice 1911. I paid $560 last summer for a NIB Springfield MilSpec. $700 also buys a decent CZ, but in 9mm. You should be able to find a nice 1911 for around $700 though. I bought a brand new Kimber a while back for $780. A Bersa 45UC is typically around $450 and comes with a rail. I think $700 would buy a railed CZ 75 SP01.

Lots of choices for that kind of money.

A Canik and a Sar K2.

I had forgotten about the SAR K2. That's one I'd love to find myself. It's a CZ 75 clone with a rail in .45acp. I think it's either a 13+1 or 14+1. I have an Armalite made by SAR and it's one of the best built guns I own. The machine work is top notch.

XD is not a steel gun!! get a glock.

As some of you know, Ive been wanting a 1911 in the $1000 and above range. But decided that I would like two handguns instead. I would like a HD pistol (.45) and another for CC when I recieve my LTCH. Ive been looking around at the XD and CZ. Not a GLOCK fan! I prefer steel pistols but right now Im open to almost anything. So I have $1000 to spend for two pistols (taxes seperate).

Commander sized 1911. You would have the .45 caliber you're wanting for HD, plus it would be easier to conceal than a full size 1911. Problem solved.

 

[Hunter88]

Decision decisions. If im just going to buy one 1911, I would like it to have a girlfriend rail. But under $1000?

Your hang up on 45 and sreel frames is killing you in this quest.

If it were me - a Caracal C with the goof sights, and a CZ P07 would tally about $950 from Impact Guns.

SW1911, Sig 1911 commander, or Ruger 1911. Decided that no rail needed. Shotgun will have a light anyways. Didn't think it would be this much of a dilemma.

I believe Ruger is coming out with a Commander sized model this year that might be a nice option.

But ONE (1) good pistol and 1500 rounds of ammo for it.......

then make it to a class or 5

Went to several LGS and none had 1911s in 45. Except gandermountain had a few. The one the caught my eye was the Sig 1911 fastback. Black with rosewood grips and it was a bobtail. They are asking $1099. Also saw a xd45 two tone for $610 new at another shop. The main LGS here was closed by time I got there. Will have to take a look there tomorrow. Any thoughts on the sig fastback?

How about an FN 45 and a Ruger LC9?

If I were you I'd get an Xd 45 tactical and an xd compact service in whatever caliber you are most comfortable carrying. Xd is a reliable weapon with added grip safety which I personally like better for carrying and it feels more like a 1911 than any other plastic gun.

Or if you want American made go with mp 45 and an mp 45 compact. Just get an apex trigger kit.
