Need to research some good mags

Though I am liking the Springfield Parkerized with all of the following except the rail
Springfield TRP Operator Light Rail would be the one I'd go with, has everything that you want. (The rear adjustable sight has a tritium insert.) Colt also makes one, but you won't get the strap checkering or night sights. There's also Mimber.... I sorry Kimber too.

As far as magazines go. While everyone loves Wilson's. They are pricey. Mec-Gar or ACT mags work just as well and are about 10 bucks cheaper.
