Thoughts on the best 1911 / 2011 in 10mm

I love how these threads turn into “I can’t answer your question so I will make a pitch for you to change your mind. My favorite that you didn’t ask about is….”

I have big hands and have always gone for double stack Para Ordnance. 45 ACP

When I was looking at a 10mm I went with the Rock Island Ultra. It has been solid for me and delivers 16+1 in a 1911 platform. You can spend more and get their tactical platform. I’m actually not sure if they sell my model any more.

Mine does not have a rail but is ambi with adjustable rear sight and fiber front.

These got a lot of hate when they first came out but opinions are coming around.

Mine has been flawless but with not tolerate limp wrists.

First day on the internet?

I’m part of the problem.

If the thread was about the best Glock I would here ‘splaining why the 1911 is the best platform ever

XD-M® Elite 3.8" Compact OSP™ 10mm Handgun - Springfield Armory

My pick would be this. I really like the Springfield Armory pistols. Not a 1911 but a great pistol. Or this below!

Nice little niche cannon. Will add Kimber Custom Shop jamming anecdote to the mix...fine now after a polishing trip back to their shop

I'll second the recommendation of the Rock Island 1911. My RIA .45 1911 runs like a champ. Cost is WAY less than the Colt or the Kimber.
