I'm in the market for a high capacity 45 ACP pistol and would welcome member's comments that have either owned one or has experience with them.

Here is what I've put together on my wish list:

45 ACP
Hi cap - 12 rounds or more
1911 style grip angle
SA or DA/SA
4.5 to 5" barrel length

The pistol will primarily be a range/competition/home defense pistol. No plans for conceal carry but will likely spend time in a Evil Roy holster rig from Mernickle Holsters.

Obvious candidates that come to mind are STI 2011 double stack pistol, Para-Ordnance P14, HK USP 45 and FNX/FNP 45.

STI's success in IPSC...etc speaks for itself but $1800+ price tag is a negative.

No experience with Para's P14. Most reasonable from a cost perspective but not sure how much I'd be investing to tune the trigger, improve slide to frame fit, reliability improvements...etc

No experience with HK's USP 45, but hear good things about them.

FNX doesn't work for me, but ironically the FNP 45 Competition does. Particularly like the FO front sight and ability to mount a Fastfire/Deltapoint like red dot.

I'll make a trip to the area gun shops to see if I can get my hands on these particular pistols.

Am I missing any other potential candidates?

Any comments? Good, bad and ugly of the four listed above.
