It would be nice for someone to pop in with some simple advice of “hey, buy this book, or go check out this web site”, but I guess I didn’t frame my statements properly. I did get one good upthread response about 1911s though...

My mistake. I thought you were serious about learning and using a 1911 before buying one.

It’s not whether I’m serious or not... It’s just that I would like some concrete statements backed up with some verifiable information as to why one is better than another. You know, things like brand, options capabilities, good for CCW or not, what makes it better than say a GLOCK (like firing pin issues, craftsmanship, aesthetics, etc...) - you know specific details as to why someone despises a GLOCK and likes something else based on their experience. I know I can go to a firing range and spend some money buying their ammo and using one of their guns, but I’d like a more meaningful reason to spend the money than simply “I despise/detest GLOCKs”. I’d like to know why someone has formed that opinion to help me determine if there is something I haven’t considered that perhaps I should have based on my limited knowledge of the myriad options that do exist.

I was trying to politely ask for a nudge in the right direction, apparently I hit a nerve somewhere along the line. Sorry about that.
