What would you do if you picked up a well built, accurate and reliable Springfield GI 1911 (at a ridiculously cheap price) but wanted a .45 with some of the features you can get stock from a nice, well built Kimber? Would you opt to have this pistol customized, which most likely would go over the price of a new Kimber, or shop around for a used Kimber and keep them both?

(I'm not interested in any other brands other than Kimber)
