Nighthawk custom,Les Baer,TRP pro etc.
Out of the high end 1911's like Nighthawk custom, Les Baer ,Ed brown, spring field trp pro, etc what do YOU like best and why.
Thinking about getting another 1911 and just wanted some personal opinions. Pics are highly welcome!

I don't own any of the above, but I have shot my friend's Les Baer Thunder Ranch. It's real nice,super tight and a great shooter, but I think I would opt for the Nighthawk if I had that kind of money.I think the Nighthawks look better and for the that kind of money, that should really be the only difference between any of them.
After that would be a TRP. JMO.....

I have a lot of 1911s to include a Les Baer TRS, custom Baer Monolith, a Wilson CQB and a full railed SA TRP.
I carry the TRS and shoot it competition (6700rds in 7 months), so I guess you could say I favor the Thunder Ranch...Everything you need, nothing you don't. I did a write up on the CQB and TRS as I got them on the same day and posted it here: TRS / CQB Range Report - 1911Forum Yes, it's on the other forum, but what the hell...

I'm a 1911 collector, so I have them all and then some. I tend to like Rock River Arms the best, but you really can't go wrong with any of them. They are all awesome in slightly different ways.
