Llama over a Taurus????????????[][][][][]

I wouldn't embarrass my attacker by shooting him with a Llama.

If I wanted a 1911 and didn't have a pile of cash I would most definetly look at Springfields. They are a very well built firearm and won't break the bank. You can get the GI model for less than $400 if you look around.

Charles Daly also makes a pretty decent 1911 and doesn't cost a pile of cash either. Lots of features other companies charge lots of extra for. http://charlesdaly.com/html/products...1911_field.asp
