Your thoughts about STI?

[Daedalus]

Awhile back I bought an STI Off-Duty 1911. It's a steel frame, officer-sized .45. At the time I recall posting that I sure wish DW made an officer model, but I settled for the STI. It has a built in rail, which I didn't (and don't) want but that's the way it's made. I know, STI also has an alloy frame officer size without a rail and Colt has the Defender and New Agent. Maybe some day I will have them all!

For one reason or other, I never have had time to break it in until today. I was totally amazed by the little gun! It works, works well, sends lead where you point it and feels fantastic in the hand. Two other guys with me shot it, my Valor and my CBOB and we all agreed it seems to 'fit' the hand best. It was a great morning at the range.

By the way - I also have a DW ECO on pre-order. Of course, it was leaked or announced after I bought the STI!

Sorry for running on. I was wondering about the opinion/experience of others in the Brotherhood about STI in general and the Off Duty in particular.
