I greatly prefer the relaxed feeling one gets after firing a box of ammo through the 1911A1 variations.
The 40SW Glock has a lot of nice features. I just do not consider it fun.
Glock 35. The G22/23/26 are nice guns, but for a pleasant shooting experience, the G35 is the way to go.
The "Practical/Tactical" G34 (9mm)/35 (40SW) guns are Glocks best kept secret, with 5" barrels, a better trigger, and double column capacity.
