I just purchased my first 1911 and it is a ruger sr1911 cmd - i had looked at the s&w (round butt) very hard but i went with ruger because of price ($699) and the fact that they changed the firing block setup - if all goes as planned i hope to purchase the s&w down the road at some juncture as well - i hope to take it to the range this week - i have an m&p 45 as well but the weight of the gun give's a considerable amount of recoil which i hope is much better with the ss ruger - just my $.02 and it is nice to be on the forum - looking forward to learning from you 1911 veteran's
