Voted 38 Super because I too always wanted one but never took the step. Have at least 5 1911s in 45acp, 3 in 10mm and 1 in 9mm. I reload for all my guns so the 38 Super should not be an issue. Went with the 9mm only because cheap ammo is available for plinking if I do not feel like reloading plus it was only marginal difference in ballistics if I wanted it for SD.

wxl.... this is my line of thinking too.... I'm leaning toward a 9mm. I can always go back for the 38 Super, but no one seems to have one in stock. Also, the 9 has Novak vs. Milspec sights, and an extended beavertail for about 60 bucks more. hmmm.... there are always decisions and tradeoffs...

Mike,

And now RIA comes out with this 9mm/22TCM 1911.

Diabolical.

Best wishes.
