I love 1911’s and have a few Kimber 1911’s and a Sig 1911, but the aluminum framed versions cannot even take +P ammo. And running it dirty? Forget it. I love 1911’s but they are limited in what they can do compared to a Glock.
The 1911 is like the Browning M2 .50 cal.
So what if the design is old, it is very effective.
I do shoot a Glock 19/9mm. It is a good target weapon, but for home defense I use a Taurus Judge. Shoots a .45 long colt or a .410 round. Much more damage than a 9mm.
I also have my grandfather’s 1911 issued to him in WWI.
Still functional. Still kick ass. When I am in the woods where hogs like to roam, I carry the 1911 and the Judge. I leave the 9mm at home.
Another thought here.
The sons of Obama carry 9’s
The FBI carry 9’s.
Why would the feds not want to outgun the bad guys?
Oh wait, the feds are not after Obama’s homeys, they are after the American taxpayer. My bad.
