No, but I do intend to own a few when I have the money.
I currently own a G21 and an extra G20 slide. I figure I'll eventually get a basic 1911 like a Colt 1991 for easier concealment in the summer, and an analogous 1911 for practicing in USPSA. |

No, but I am planning on a Wilson for a graduation present to myself.

Yes, and it is one of my favorite pistols to shoot. Smooth, accurate, and just feels good. I was never a fan of them until joining this board years ago but am very glad I ended up picking one up.

Yes, I have 1 at the moment. Its kind of a display piece and very special, so I haven't shot it.

Yes four custom engraved for my last deployment from Colt, sequential SN's

Yes but I'd rather have my glock. Why eat with plastic sporks when you say you've got good silverware? I get it but 1911's just don't feel right. I like how they shoot, just not how they feel in my hand. |

Many, I have owned many.
Currently a very tastefully modified Colt SS Government Model and a Springfield TRP. |
|
I had two. A Para Ordnance 14-45 and a SA Loaded (parkerized model)
Went to HK and never looked back. |

I have owned quite a few over the years but no longer have a 1911. I may pick one up in the next year or two.

Don't get me wrong, glocks are great for what they are...the world's first disposable pistol.

No.
I have shot them a few times, and they're nothing special. Just an other semi-auto, and one that doesn't fit my needs or wants. It basically nostalgia that keeps them prevalent on the market, as they're out-performanced by modern semi-autos from many other manufacturers. Nothing wrong with them, but there's also nothing special about them. ETA; OP, your poll is just about useless. All the 1911 fan-boys will come running to this thread due to the title. It's not like those that aren't interested in 1911s are going to be bothered......well, except for me. |

Birddog, I am admiring that custom shop series 70 of yours. that thing is beautiful Thanks. It's a Wiley Clapp Govt., that I sent to Alchemy to have some personal touches added. Flush cut and chamfered barrel, same w/slide stop, hand cut 25 lpi on the grip safety to match the front and back, and then hard chromed.

Nope. Never even shot one. Why would I want an inferior firearm based on an outdated design and poor workmanship?

If the prime discussion point on a TV was whether it is "reliable out of the box" no one would be buying that brand. You may long for the nostalgia of a good old fashioned tube TV in black and white with grainy resolution, but there are much better HDTVs out there that work flawlessly. |
