#2 for me in 45 LC please!
If we’re talking Ruger 1911s now, I’d love to see:
* a CCO in both .45 and 9mm
* round butt / fastback variants

I would personally rather have a 1911 hicap although the CZ would no doubt be a nice gun.
Ruger could likely easily enough tweak the Caspian frame or engineer something else that takes 1911 thumb and grip safety components that's built on a refined 9mm mag. In theory this new hypothetical frame could be made smaller in circumference since it wouldn't be made to work with .38 Not So Super or .45 Auto.

Probably the true market competition would come from the BUL SAS II TAC or whatever it is called and the Rock Island Wide Body. I would lump the Para Ordnance in here as well but I don't think that name exists anymore with the demise of Remington.
Ideally the gun would be a 4.25-ish barrel, an aluminum frame with light rail and some type of red dot adapter setup. That's probably the easy part. Mags might be an issue. If they end up being more than probably $45 at the most the gun will flounder.
Massive thread drift but I'd assume Ruger could make something about like this:

They could use a casting for the upper frame section and a polymer lower ala STI easily enough. This ultimately might be the better option than a fully metal frame. It would allow for future grip length/size/color options.
