I've owned a Regent before (r100 model) and have nothing bad to say about them. Neither does Gunblast, ironically. This model will only set me back $550 and I have to admit, it's pretty darn sexy for the price point. Or we could go with...
Taurus Raging Bull 2.25in .454 Casull

What's not to like? Some people malign Taurus, but I've don't hear many bad things about their Raging Bull line (the firearm blog loves it, too). I love the look and it's full of .454 goodness with the option to fire .45 long. Only issue it it will set me back substantially more-- Almost $800 after ffl fees and the like.
On one hand, the 1911 is more budget friendly and won't make my wallet wince like the Taurus will. On the other hand, I can get the 1911- or any 1911 for that matter -at any time. That Taurus is rare. No, I don't have a particular need for either. It's not likely I'll be shooting Laser Zombie Bears popping out of the Alaskan snow or any like activities with the 1911.
Yeah, there's probably half a dozen other 1911s you'd choose first or you'd go with the Ruger Alaskan but these are the guys I'm looking at right now. Hit the poll and tell me what's up.
