Alex, I agree with what PUMC and Jim Watson said. Shoot what you have. You can spend more money later. It's all about awareness and using what you would normally carry. I don't Custom class is for custom. The larger 1911's are great but I don't know that I'd agree with the Kimber statement of earlier. We had one go full auto last week at a IDPA match. I don't know if it was operator "tweeking" or if Kimber is getting sloppy in mass-production like Colt has. Anyway, find a local club that shoots IDPA, go talk to them and get the proper holster and mags, then go do it. If their like our club, the SO's will walk you through it and are great teachers. If not, find another club!
