I have a weird obsession with the .45 caliber and I already have a sti Spartan so my 1911 fix is done. I will eventually own almost all of these to be mentioned pistols but would like the first few to be the more sought after. I spend most of my time at the range so that's what their primary purpose will be. I already have an xds 3.3 so no more ccw's. Here is the list as I see them in order of want, although I've never shot most of them.

1) xdm 5.25
2) glock 41
3) hk 45 tactical
4) sig p220 (any variant)
5) sig p227 tactical
6) m&p 4.5
7) xdm 4.5
8) glock 21
9) cz 97 bd
10) fnx 45 tactical
11) usp 45 tactical
12) mark 23
13) beretta px4 storm special duty
14) ruger sr45
15) eaa witness elite match

Would your list be in a different order? Are there any full size non-1911's that I have not mentioned that are worth looking at? How about it boys and girls!!

* All of these will be strictly range toys/bedside pieces.
