Big stupid purchase (s) of the day

Man am I going to be in trouble.... I saw the new S&W 1911 e-series today. If you haven't seen it (link):

Now... if you are into 1911's you'll understand why the purchase. It was pre-ordered for another customer  but I got to handle it before it went to it's new home. Mine will be here shortly  ;D

Sooo... while I was there I bought another 1911; the new Remington 1911 R1. Link:

I believe in the rule of 2's. You should have 2 of every caliber weapon that you own. In this case I "needed" a 1911 so I bought 2.

If you take these plus the GSG 1911 .22, the Ruger SR-556 6.8, the M&P 15-22 it's been an expensive month. Let's hope that the ISSC MK-22 and the Sig 516 that I have on order don't show up this month or I'll end up on some list. LOL.

Thats real nice, awesome.. I love well made 1911's

Im a fan of S&W's own single actions like this and this

I can't believe how much $$$ 1911's are. The S&W is the most expensive handgun I've purchased. My buddy has a Les Baer 1911. It's like the price of a nice used car. I'm thinning out my motorcycles collection and taking up another collection that takes much less room but is just as dangerous to the wallet.

My current ceiling on any firearm is $1999.99 with the exception of building my own

I love 1911's, and that e-series has caught my eye as well.  I would get the rounded butt model, probably.  But I'm also eye'ing that new Springfield Range Officer model. 

Congrats on your new pieces!!

@ madhouse: I looked at the Range Officer as well. Nice gun. I was just caught up in the beauty of the S&W E model. Man it's a beautiful gun... in stainless :)
