Still haven't fully decided yet. Your breakdown is pretty much in line with my thoughts on all this. I'm still considering the Glock, but I've always been a 1911 guy. And I don't plan on running anything through it except hardcast during hunting season, and they tell me I'm not supposed to run that through a stock Glock barrel. Aftermarket stuff is available of course, but I'm not an aftermarket kind of guy.

Big drawback to me is the price tag for a quality 1911. I'm thinking I may wait another couple months, save some more pennies, and get the 1911. Which one, I'm not sure yet.
