I would like to get another 45 Semi Auto but was wondering, what is considered to be 'The Pick Of The Litter' these days? One that I saw pic's of that 'looks' interesting is the Performance Center 945-1, comments? Also, how about the Kimber?
 
can't complain too much about Kimber... they work and look good.

I had a minor problem with the barrel on mine (asthetic - the rifling had ripples under the area where the lugs are cut), but on the plus side I wanted to order spare parts for my Kimber and it was not the headache I was expecting it to be to order from Kimber. Overall I am satisfied with Kimber. If I could go back in time though I'd get the Raptor or something pricier (hoping it was a little better quality).
 
I have a Kimber as well. As g37 said they look great. Mine shoots great as well. I never checked for the ripples in the barrel yet, maybe ill do that later tonight. But no problems yet.

If I were to go back and purchase it again, I would definately take a look at a STI Trojan too. I've heard good things about them
 
I have a STI Trojan in 40 s&w. I am totally impressed with the quality. performance and looks of the pistol. I've only put about a 1000 rounds through it but it has'nt jammed so far.

STI is a "Brand" Trojan is a Model of the STI brand.

Kinmber is a Brand. Raptor is a model.

To get a real idea of "Pick of the Litter" you need to specify a price range.

Many makers have excellent models in prices from ~$1000 - 3500

Myself, I am hoping someone here buys a Tanfoglio Custom and reviews it over the next few months. More inline with my price range.
 
I have a Kimber Eclipse and a Glock 21. They're both great but if I could only own one I'd keep the Glock.

The Kimber Warrior looks very cool - I may trade my Eclipse on one someday.
 
I would not exclude a Les Baer, may fav being the Prowler III. The quality, fit and finish is considered to be one of the best. And speaking of accuracy tack drivers..

I do not believe that a Les Baer is for everyone, but if talking about best of breed , a Les Baer is a cut above

I think there is a distributor in Toronto .. Google Les Baer and see for yourself

For the money I would go with the Para SSP. Mine has been flawless and extremely accurate. For the price I don't think they can be beat.

Like an earlier postor said the Tanfoglio line of 1911's is interesting and look like a great buy. Awaiting some range reports.

Take Care

Do you have a price range in mind? The S&W PC 945 is about 2500 dollars. For that you could have BOTH the Para SSP and Glock 21 and still come ahead. :cool:
