Alright, I finally got the wife's ok to buy myself a new 1911! I just don't know which one. I want either the Pro CDP II, the Stainless Pro Raptor II, or the Master Carry Pro. Anyone have any experience with these? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Help me decide...

Unless you're needing a laser take a pass on the MCPro. It's a great firearm but you're paying for the laser. My CDPII Ultra+ is one of my favorite guns as is my Raptors 5" stainless. Either gun will be a great investment. I suspect if you go to the LGS and handle all three you'll drive home with the Raptor. They are just that sweet! Have fun!

I have a Super Carry Ultra plus, and a Custom Crimson II. I like the Raptor Pro but don't own one. I do love the Super Carry Ultra Plus. I don't care for the laser of the Custom II.

I respectfully disagree with some of Walkingman's recommendation. All three of your choices are really fine Kimber's. The CDP and Raptor I own in the Ultra size. All great. There is not a "wrong" choice in your group. I may add a Stainless Raptor Pro to my group some day.
I have a Master Carry Pro and it is a very accurate and reliable pistol right out of the box. I don't think the laser is a waste of money on the Master Carry Pro even if you don't think you need it or will use it. Never hurts to have a laser. I like the Green laser best (I can see it better) just my .02 cents.
I would rate them:
1. Master Carry Pro
2. Stainless Raptor Pro
3. CDP Pro
Again all are great pistols!

Take a look at the Eclipse Custom II Target. One of the nicest Limber's around. Just ask the man who owns one...me.

The Stainless Raptor's looks in all the different sizes have always been a favorite of mine!

Eclipse Custom is very nice but it does not help the OP with his question. He narrowed it down to CDP Pro, Stainless Raptor Pro, Master Carry Pro?

From your list, choose the Stainless Pro Raptor.
I have one. I love it. It's my #2 favorite. My Super Carry Ultra HD is my #1 favorite and EDC.

Well you're off to a good start, you've got it narrowed down to a Pro size (4") gun. Next decision would be a traditional frame or a round heel frame. Crimson Trace laser grip or traditional grips. Mull over those choices, give us some feed back and I'll throw more choices at you.
