A Springfield isn't a bad choice. If that's the way you go I doubt you'll be disappointed. The only 1911 I own that's truly mil-spec is a Colt made in 1916. I'm not against improving things. The inclusion of a match barrel isn't really a bonus, although companies would like you to think it is. A match barrel is irrelevant unless it's properly match fit to the gun. Something no production company is doing with their rack grade guns, including Springfield. My experience of "tinkering" with multiples of both brands in question doesn't bear out your viewpoint on that particular issue. I've shot Springfields into the ground, rebuilt them and worn them out again. This is not hyperbole.
Whichever way you go, just don't fall victim to analysis paralysis. Pick your choice, pay your money and enjoy.
