2, both highly customized. They are both examples of my 1911 building skills evolving over the years.

Three.

Correction: Three, currently. But as that isn't nearly enough, I plan to have more soon.

4 Colts, 2 Springfields, 1 AMT (40), 1 Kimber, 1 "I built it from parts" Colt/AMT/GI hydrid (22), and a Ballerina Molester. Five Colts, if you count the one that some no-count lowlife thievin' bastard has, that belongs to me. Plus a couple of extra tops, to make a Commander size 45 and 9mm.

As of right now, 2. RIA .45ACP and Colt/Walther .22. Shortly after the new year I will be adding another. Not sure what as of yet but it will be something in a 1911 platform.

Citadel .45

Chiappa .22

Just four, unless you want to call the Sig P238 a small version of a 1911, then it would be five
