I own an Ed Brown Executive Elite, 2 of the Les Baer PII, a Nighthawk TRS Custom, a Dan Wesson Valor, and a Staccato P. I have also shot several Wilsons.
I'll say that all of these are great guns and you won't go wrong with any of them, it kind of depends on what you are looking for. The Dan Wesson is certainly the best value of the bunch, in terms of price to performance and finish. The Ed Brown and Nighthawk are just outright fun to shoot with, and the fit and finish of those two are amazing. But when I want a gun that I can take out and absolutely drive nails with I grab my Baer with the 1 1/2" guarantee and let it rip. The gun itself isn't a classic 1911 beauty, and it comes from the factory in a cardboard box, but man does that thing just run. It's incredibly tight, well built, and I have never had the first issue with it on the range. They have a few idiosyncrasies but they are just great guns overall.
