Editor’s Note: The Springfield Armory 1911 Garrison is an absolute gem of a gun and one of the best value 1911s on the market. For $750 - $850, you get a 1911 with an outstanding trigger, amazing accuracy, and a beautiful hot salt blued finish. While it may not have all the bells and whistles of higher-end 1911s, it's got looks that kill and performance to match - all at an affordable price.
