Colt 1911 Mark IV
Springfield 1911
Sig P220
XD-9
XD-45 4" service model
XD-45 5" tactical model
Glock 17
H&K 9mm USP
S&W 357 Revolver

Of the group I really liked XD-45 service model for it's accuracy, size, capacity and ergonomics, this will probably be the gun I pull trigger on (no pun intended). My boss' Colt 1911 MK IV was the smoothest .45, but I'm not a fan of the 7 round magazine capacity and size.
