Good on yer 1911.
If you fast roped into Lower Slobova, lost your gear, and had to fight with the local G-s using their stuff and what you could find on the battlefield,
Yer 1911 would not be there. But a G-19 would.
So train the troops on them, not yer 1911, which might as well have a 1 digit serial number, and be made of pure unobtanium, residing in your house.
I’ve shot a couple of Glock 19’s, the guy I shoot with on Sundays is a retired Marine Colonel, he’s a revolver guy, but he has one, shoots nice.
I can shoot whatever I might find. I’m even reasonably accurate with commie guns like the Tokarev and Makarov.
I wasn’t making any comment on what the Marines should choose, just my own preference.
