I liked the M&P .357 Sig that I had been carrying but sure did miss a 1911. Searched for a while and looked at several different brands until I found a 1911 SC from a gentleman on this site. I really wanted a commander size with a bobtail and aluminum frame. I really like the way this gun handles and looks. I plan to sling some lead this week and if it shoots 1/2 as good as it looks it will be a keeper. I am trying to decide if I want to put some Crimsont Trace laser grips or just a set of VZ grips on it. I never considered a laser grip until I handled a Kimber Ultra Carry.
