Browning Buckmark or a Mark 4.

I can shoot sub 1.5 inch groups at 25 yards with my stock buckmark. Its a better gun then I am shooter and its cheap and easy to find anywhere.

They don't make 1911's anymore? So it ain't so.
Oh, they do, just not for you.

Well the government doesn't use 1911s any more.

Another vote for Buckmark here. I like mine a lot and the people I let shoot it always say nice things. Mine is the bull barrel Camper model.

Thread hijack - I heard CMP is getting 10K 1911s for resale. Get ready!

Also - Another happy Ruger MkII target owner. If I was going to spend that much on a 22 pistol, I'd get an amphibian :)
