I keep trying other 45s but keep coming back to the only 45 auto available when I started shooting---the 1911. And the full size government model is still my favorite.
Despite trying alternatives over the years such as the Smith M645 and M4506, the SIG P220, the Glock G21 and the XD45 I keep coming back to the full size 1911. Its still the best gun in a 45acp despite its age.
