Depends on what you have in terms of handguns / and what you want....

If you don't have a decent 1911....in that price range, I'd probably look at some of the Colt or Springfield 1911's --- they're not top end guns / but both companies are doing very well ( and you have options in both 9mm and .45 acp calibers).

I like the Sig X-Fives as well...but the L-1 model, of that X-Five group of the 226's lists at about $ 2,747 ...and in my area is selling for around $ 2,400...but its a nice gun.

The X-Five tactical version - lists at about $ 1,700 and is selling in my area for around $1,400 ....( but it doesn't have the adjustable trigger / or the weight of the L-1 model, which I like personally ).
