Hello,
I wanted to find out people's opinion of the Wilson tactical elite. It is in the price range of a full custom 1911 and costs considerably more than a CQB. However, it has a cone barrel, magwell, and non-MIM internals and safeties. Also, I've been told the tactical elite has more hand fitting than the CQB or protector. As an alternative, I've been considering a CQB, a Les Baer (which would require a few modifications, such as the mag well), or an Ed Brown.
I had considered a full house custom gun, but I called several gunsmiths and the waiting period is considerable. I wanted the pistol for this summer, and I've found a few dealers who have Wilsons and Les Baers in stock.
The gun will see a lot of time at the range for 15-25 yard shooting. It may also serve as a home defense weapon. Thanks.
