Unfortunately the 1911 is going to be banned in Kalifornia starting next year. I have been saving up money to get a HK .45 usp in stainless steel, which has been discontinued, but I can always go with the blue steel. Now here is my problem, I have the money to get the USP but since they will be legal next year and the 1911 will not, should I just get a 1911 now, or should I get the stainless steel USP. If I get the USP I am sure I will be able to eventualy find a 1911 through a private transfer. Also is the 1911 truly worth it, and why. I know there are alot of parts available for one and it seems alot of people speek highly of them. I have never fired one before but I have fired the USP and I love it.
