Four Colts in various configurations over the years...one marked US Navy and owned by a Hellcat pilot in WWII. Now down to three Kimbers, an all-weather one which is usually carried tucked in a tight belt with a Grip Clip. The other two go in a Bianchi shoulder rig in cooler weather. Love them all!
 
Depending on which way the wind is blowing, it's one of these...

...although, like Joni, I'm awfully fond on my Baer Premier II.

I have several 1911s, but four of them are Pre War Colts. Two of them my dad bought with his first pay checks on his first job as a chemist with Danube Oil Company after he graduated from college in 1936. Two of them I bought at a GO-rage Sale that my wife wanted me to go to with her. I paid the lady exactly what she wanted for the two of them as she told me I wasn't got to rob her. She said she knew exactly what her husband had paid for them before the war.

Favorite 45 is my CS45 W/Big Dog Grips
My only 1911,is the S&W Pro Series Sub-Compact

Hey Pete - long time. Glad you joined.

Like your pics - as always.

Here's another of a Snake keeping up with a Chinook!

Had a Kimber Custom CDP II that didn't like my reloads - chamber was too tight - so I sold it and got this.

This is the finest 1911 I have ever fired. Sure, there's other, better pistols, but this one is mine.

Look at the fit!

I also have a West German Sig P220 I bought new in 1987. I like the Sig too. :)

Sorry, I've been away from the 'pute for a couple of days, but it looks like y'all carried on just fine without me. ;)

Some mighty fine looking pistols, thanks for sharing!
 
This is my favorite, a RIA .45 in satin nickel. Runs perfectly so far, great slide to frame fit, it was cheap and so am I, and most of all, I think it's pretty !!! Shoo

My favorite is my Ruger P90 put a lot of rounds through it and have never had one problem. I also have a Taurus 1911 B that's pretty. Larry
 
I am one of the weird people that does not like 1911s; I have tried over the years, but always end up trading them back on something else.
I have owned two Kimbers, two Paras and a Taurus

To be honest, the Taurus shot the best, had the smoothest cycling and had the most features for hundreds less than the competition.
