I'm contemplating getting my first Nighthawk.
All will have the IOS system will allow me to mount my homeless RMR or swap to irons if it has a problem.
1) Enforcer
The iconic Government 1911 with many features included. I am thinking of this as my first one. I generally have no trouble concealing a full sized government (I usually carry a Glock 21 or 30), but the longer barrel carried IWB can get annoying after a few hours. It covers all roles and is good for gun games too (not that I do much of those).
2) T4 9mm Commander with rail
It's a slightly easier gun to carry than a Government. I've noticed in the past few years that my Commanders tend to migrate into the 4.25" Criterion. Additionally, I can carry it up front. It looks really cool with the T4 front slide cut and the rail. I chose 9mm since it's a little easier to shoot and I am starting to develop arthritis in my hands. 44 Magnum is not as fun as it once was and neither is 45 ACP in little guns
3) Counselor
This would be a pure urban 9mm EDC. I'm actually leaning toward this model for exactly that reason, but my Springfield Armory EMP fulfills the same role.
4) Updating other guns
I have a DW Valor Government in 45, a DW Valor Commander in 9mm and a Springfield EMP. Both DW's are stainless, which I dislike. The Government is currently unreliable. The Commander is fine, but neither have rails. The EMP needs all the MIM parts replaced and trigger work.
