All in all tho, I will take any Browning gun over just about any other.
One of the things I like about the Glock is the Browning lockup barrel.
It lowers the need for strong recoil springs. e.g blowbacks
I have not liked the 1911 since I first used one fifty years ago.
HPs are a much better design.
The 1911 was designed with 19th century metallurgy and materiel.
It was designed to stop suicidal Muslims in the Spanish American War.
OBTW: I have two Browning O/U shotguns

The 1911 was designed with 19th century metallurgy and materiel. Shows what a genius Browning was. The Special forces are returning to 1911's in the 21st century.
