Newer Kimbers are not worth the money. They were great years ago but quality these days is bad . Dont own an STI but I have a Staccato that runs great. I own Wilson Combat and Les Baer . Love both .

BUL makes a nice 1911, I have one of their 2011s that is my dedicated house gun. HOWEVER, I'd never consider them a "semi-custom" manufacturer they are not in the same class as Baer, Brown, Wilson, NH, GI, etc.Good morning Matt! I am new to 1911 Addicts, but I must say that one of the best semi-custom 1911 platforms I have found in the last couple of years has been BUL Armory out of Israel. Oryx Arms is one of their distributors, and you can get a 1911 single stack in 45 ACP or 9mm (I know you purists would shudder at the thought of this caliber LOL!!!), or a 2011 double stack optics ready,19 rounds (9mm) or 14 rounds (45 ACP) SAS II from the price points of $1350 to $1850, no tax, and $45 shipping. The BUL armory fit and finish, butter smooth slide and phenomenal View attachment 990554 3.5-4# trigger out of the box with a reset that is outstanding. All with 3 dot sights on single stack, or fiber optics on 2011 model, and G10 grips with 2 mags. Seriously consider this for a top quality 1911 platform IMHO!
Thanks for your service Matt!

I bought a lightly used Les Baer Thunder Ranch Special on GunBroker several years ago for under $2000 and it was exactly what I’d been wanting.Hello everyone!

I would make a list of features, caliber and style/size gun you want and then research models... you'll eliminate a lot of ground that way.I have around $2200-$2500. I would like to get into the upper echelon but I might not have enough funds...

We all have our favorites and opinions, and I understand your response, but for the price point and the fit, finish, and quality of operation and workmanship I have seen in the BUL Armory platforms, they can give some of the manufacturers you have named a run for the money, and you still have money in your pocket to buy ammo and a nice holster. And going back to a previous post, you can spend thousands of dollars, but if you can't shoot worth a flip, what is the point???
