My vote would go for the Loaded. I prefer the stainless steel model. I'm not that into GI style 1911's, and I don't care for adjustable sights on semiautos. So, Novak style fixed sights, a nice beavertail, skeletonized hammer and trigger are sure to get my attention. Not crazy about the ambi safety, but I love the look of the gun.
I also have a mental block about spending more than $1K on a 1911, so the Loaded does it for me.
