Most people you talk too about the SOCOM pistols are happy with them. It's a very inexpensive full metal pistol. They are WE built, and then re-branded and gone over to clean up any bugs.

It won't be as skirmishable as a TM though so that's one thing to keep in the back of your mind. Taking a TM MEU up to full metal takes a huge wad of cash though.

I have the Wilson version from new that I got to have a 1911 in the quiver. The biggest downer is that the slide is loose on the frame and I don't think there is any fix for that. Accuracy is great, trigger pull is amazing, and I think it would be a pertty good starter pistol for someone on a budget.

I would take a used TM out of the classifieds over a WE if the prices were even, but really the WE even new should be a lot less $.
