--- Quote from: Moshrides1;3448848 ---I am going to be buying a pistol in January and I am kinda torn between 2.
It will either be a Desert eagle 50AE
Or a 1911.
What are good 1911 company's? Obviously colt is one. I did find a colt 1911 legit for sale. It's used and selling for $700. What about spring field? or Taurus? I found a 1911 Taurus for sale for $650 new. Not sure if I like the look though.
Thanks.

Go to a range and shoot a few guns before you buy one. Shoot a revolver, shoot a 1911, shoot a Desert Eagle, (most ranges around here rent them because people want to try them) shoot a .22, 9mm, .40, .45 etc.
In my opinion Springfield Armory is the BEST* route for a 1911 because of the customer service and warranty.
*=unless you have some knowledge/aptitude in mechanics of firearms, then the best 1911 ever is a series 70 colt. The series 80 has some bs safety in it and proprietary parts.
Taurus is hit or miss, you might get a good one or you might get a lemon. Customer service is in Florida, while they are made in Brazil by Taurus.
S.A. is also made in Brazil by a very reputable* firearms manufacturer, then sold out of good old ILLINOIS.
Really though don't get a desert eagle.
*= IMBEL, they also make the best FALs in the world next to Belgium made ones.

Agreed. Figure out what your budget is and then do what Birdmane suggested and go rent whatever you can get your hands on.
Birdmane:
Springfield Armory Range Officer is the best deal hands down.
