I would consider another HK, a Springfield XD, or possibly a Springfield 1911. What else is out there? I don't want to spend an arm and a leg either.

Thoughts? (oh, and keep in mind I live in CA. So we have magazine limit restrictions, as well as no threaded barrels).


I really like the FNP 45 too. Its a polymer frame and has the external hammer so you can shoot DA or SA. They cost a little more than a Glock but I like it a lot more. And the standard magazine holds 15 rounds of .45ACP! now thats pretty hard to beat.
