I think the 1911 is starting to grow on me, and somehow I think I'll eventually end up with one also. Yours looks like it will be a true classic some day. If I get one, I want an original just like yours... I don't care what Colt did or didn't do to lose so much business; if I get one, it'll be a Colt.
BTW: If you don't mind my asking, how much $ did that 1911 set you back?
Let us know how it works out for you,
Ben
