Been thinking about a new 1911, perhaps a Ruger sr1911 or the basic S&W e-series (the one that lists for under 1K). Primarily for range shooting or home defense. But I have been reading good things about the M&P 45, and the price, availability, and warranty are all attractive. I have the M&P 9 compact and think highly of that. If you have an opinion on the accuracy & reliability of the M&P 45 as compared to 1911s in the 700 to 1K price range, I would sure be interested. Thank you!
