If you are interested in carry more than shooting, I would go with the aluminum frame. If it is a shooter that you want, you got your eye on the right gun.
I carry all steel government 1911s now, so I don't think that will be an issue.

My only concern is finish reliability. How does the black oxide hold up to holstering/unholstering? This gun would spend its time in a kydex/leather Minotaur MTAC holster.
