If you want a nice .45 calibre gun, one word, Thompson!
Of course you need a special FFL to have it.
But if you have ever held & fired one, there is no going back.

Kimbers and Wilsons are very good weapons, but I still prefer the S&W performance center .45 ACP's linky: .45 Performance Center

2 votes... i have a 228, as well as 3 smith & wessons... a .38, .357 mag, and a .45... the p228 is definitely my favorite gun to shoot, and the easiest to carry. My friend has a sig .40 that is another fantastic gun.
Another vote for Sig. I also have a 228 in 9mm. I would take a Sig over any Glock any day. Sig grips are more comfortable for me and I cant stand Glock triggers.

The most important part in choosing a handgun is finding one that you feel comfortable with. Make sure you can pull it up and get a good sight picture without having to bobble around & you can control it after pulling the trigger. Too many people buy a firearm solely on looks,caliber or the recommendations of others only to find out that it is not the one for them. With CNC manufacturing, firearms are more reliable than ever, so you can't go wrong with the Ruger or the other big names- Glock,Smith,Kimber,Taurus,H&K,Sig, Walther,Browning,Para, etc. Try to find a gunshop w/ a range that will let you try a couple different makes and models and go with whatever you feel comfortable with. I am a NRA Certified safety instructor and ex-gunsmith and I always tried to make these recommendations to customers and students.
