Now on another note. What would people say is a good company to get a 1911/MEU/Desert/Night Warrior/Hi-Capa from? I'd still probably say TM since they're "the best" for GBB's and a common name but is there any better? I'm not willing to shell out for a WA though (too expensive especially after mags).

KSC/KWA - are pretty up there with their Sys7/NS2 guns (based off their GBB Glock design) and I know their Glocks are superb (I own a KSC G19 myself)
WE/SOCOM Gear - I'm not really sure about since it's generally accepted they're pretty low quality (unless they've improved and someone can correct me on this)
WA - Out of my price range (especially after adding up the price for mags)

Any other guns/companies I should consider (keep in mind that price is a factor)? I'm basically looking for a workhorse pistol for CQB/outdoor FIBUA games. I'd like it to be 1911 based, perferably an MEU or Desert/Night Warrior, however I am looking at the Hi-Capa 4.3 and it's a pretty capable platform too. Also no I don't want to get an NBB Mk.23, yeah it's nice but not really for me.
ARMY builds a very respectable full metal MEU, its still a clone, but the quality is pretty nice, the meister MEU as well is a decent clone., the KWA and WE both take proprietary 15 round mags instead of the 28 round mags the TM clones have as well,

They're called priorities. Get yourself some.
