And the little hood can be adjusted for bright or overcast days, plus in effect giving you the ability to go 1/2 MOA per click for elevation. Way more precision than most people need. Way way more than I need.

So now that you have one main battle rifle you need another to keep your M1A company.
Everbody needs one of these blue collar jewels:

Or this, the AK of main battle rifles:

Hey guys I am contemplating buying a nice .45 and I have been looking at a lot of different models and brands. What are some suggestions from you all?

Any 1911 from Kimber, Colt, or Springfield
I recently traded a Springfield Mil-spec and some change for a Kimber TLE II - the difference was night and day. Fit and finish on the Kimber is impressive, as are the night sights, match barrel, and general ergonomics. By comparison, the Mil-spec slide to frame fit was terrible and accuracy left a lot to be desired.
Definitely consider a Kimber if you want bang for your buck.

I have a Smith and Wesson 1911 Series .45 and I love it. Too big if your planning to carry, but a nice weapon. It also has a Crmison Trace laser light hand grip to ensure accuracy

1911 isn't too big to carry. I carried mine around SA and TX with no problems when it was hot out.
What kind of holster do you have? Its too heavy for a hip holster, it pulls your pants down, especially if its fully loaded. Its too big to conceal really down by your ankle unless you have really baggy pant legs. (And I meant too big if your planning to carry on a regular basis, fine for every once in a while. I'd recommend a 9mm or similar for carrying often).
I cary a Colt 1911, not really a big deal
I have a Glock 21SF. I love it. Everyone who shoots it loves it. It's indestructible and accurate as holy hell. My only gripe is the mag release isn't very smooth, but unless you've got girly man hands it shouldn't be a problem. I carry it in a DeSantis OWB paddle holster. Even fully loaded with 14 230gr +P JHP's, I don't notice it unless I'm getting in and out of my car. If your pants are falling down, tighten up your belt a notch or two.
The 1911 is a fine weapon, but lacks capacity.

IWB holster. I walked around the riverwalk and up the new north extension and it never moved. Good quality belt (my brother made mine) and good holster.
Doublestack 1911 and 14 in the mag.

Ah, touché salesman.
Were you packing heat when we ate dinner on the Riverwalk that night? (do you remember that by the way?)
