I'm looking to get a single-action semi-auto for my son for his birthday. I remember loving the 1911 when I was growing up, it was the gun my father used to teach me how to shoot and I just remember it offering terrific performance and minimal recoil.
I'm not all that familiar with the modern 1911 so I've been shopping around, trying to find the best 1911 for my budget. I'm hoping to spend under a thousand bucks, but I want to make sure I'm getting him a decent piece.
I came across this article that lists a bunch of different pistols with a range of prices: https://gunnewsdaily.com/best-1911-money/
Does anyone have any experience with any of these pistols? I'm looking for specs and stuff, really anything you can tell me about features and value for the money. If there's one that's better than the others for slightly more $, I'm willing to spend about eight or nine hundred dollars. Any info?
