Did IDPA this weekend.

7 people in my group.

1 G19
1 P30
and 5 1911s

Only one person was shooting .45.  Thats 4.  4 9mm 1911s.


Are they actually that popular?  Most of the time I see big boy 1911s or Glocks.

Ammo prices has pushed 45 to 9 for cheaper ammo/reloading components.
IDPA =no major

In IDPA, a 9mm 1911 is a very good choice for ESP. I have shot one for years.
You can make many improvements, shoot cheaper ammo, and have almost no recoil. This is why the CZ SP01 is also a very popular choice in SSP/ESP.

Pretty popular around here as well.  I've seen a good bit of them at the IDPA matches here.  Honestly I see very few .45s around here anymore.
