What’s better than a SIG 1911? How about three of them

When John Moses Browning designed the “1911 Automatic Pistol” in the early 1900s, he could not have imagined that more than 100 years later his gun design would still garner as much enthusiasm and loyalty as it does. Before the U.S. Military selected it as the primary sidearm in 1911 and even today, millions of 1911 enthusiasts still love it and swear by it. It has certainly proven itself over the years. From innumerable combat operations with all of the armed services to competition and self-defense, the 1911 remains not only a viable firearm, but one that — for many people — is still their first choice.

The 1911 is available from hundreds of makers, in price ranges from a few hundred dollars (for a reliable one, true to the original design) to several thousand dollars (for very fine custom guns, with many modern additions). With so many choices, there exist multiple books, magazines and websites dedicated to breaking down the available configurations for you to choose from.
