i am looking to buy 1911a1. who makes best 1911

[neophyte]

Unregistered: Sir; a most relative question! Best? isn't how I determine anything.
How does it fit me; or my lifestyle. Many 'well published'; well advertised; well thought firearms have deficiencys. Some; because; they do not fit the shooter.

It will be hard for someone to 'plunk' down 'hundreds' of dollars and not say "best"; when in fact; it may not fit them or their lifestyle.

A fellow member; takes the 1911's and does a ''happy dance'' on them; ''whatever'' you desire; will that make it the 'best'?

The gentleman I speak of; is very, very good; fitting, forming, adding, subtracting, his parts are 'top shelf'; his attention to detail "top shelf'', "I" having seen his 'parts' and his 'parts' at work.

Were you to sit down with him; and spend the proper 'listening' time; All firearms don't fit all people all the time.

Follow up when you can
Thanks for asking your question

That is like asking who makes the best car.

I love my Springfield. Colt is also great, Kimber too. Spend a couple thousand and get a Wilson. Spend under $500 and get a Rock Island or Charles Daly. Taurus makes a great one in the mid $600's. There seems to be a 1911 out there to fit everyone's needs and budget. Can you be more specific?

The decision is really budget driven as stated.

Absolutely. I've heard good things about the S&W 1911 clone too. ("s&w 1911" sounds weird)

[Deersniper]

Springfield makes a great one.

Because the 1911 is a tried and true design that's 100 years old, the list of good ones is huge and I don't think any could be called "the best". You should ask which ones you should stay clear of, that's a much smaller list.
