Any opinions on the GSG 1911?

I'm looking for an affordable handgun for casual shooting. I like the look of the GSG 1911 and I can get one for $470 at a local place. I won't be locking in my decision for a little while, but I thought I'd get some opinions now.

On a related note, how would you compare it to a Beretta 92 or a Px4 Storm? Those are the other ones that stand out to me, since I happen to have a couple of magazines that would fit those.

Sounds expensive look at all the variants from Sig and GSG. They usually sell around $330-360. As for the pistol they are great fun. I have mine cycling federal 36gr CPHP makes for affordable fun. I did polish off the overspray inside of the slide to be able to use a low weight bullet.
