I carried a 1911 cause I am not 'professional enuff' to carry a 'G-lock fotay'.
The 1911's a good gun, you just need to know what the hell you're doing when you run one. It requires upkeep, and some knowledge of more in depth armory level stuff than a Glock/M&P,etc. Its not a weapon for the lazy, or undisciplined. |

That is a little funny, I wonder if that's true about 1911's not getting through a class. It is. I took several of Robs classes and the gun are run hard and very dirty. Last ICE class I took was in 2011 and I fired 1,300 rounds in 2 days. I have never seen a 1911 make it through in 6 classes over the years. I want to see if my Dan Wesson Valor could though. I've had almost 500 round through it without a malfunction. Rob told me to give it a shot. |

I've never run it 1000 rounds without cleaning though. |

One that has been monkeyed with, or built too tight (read out of spec) is not as reliable. It's a fairly simple concept. |

that was funny, but as much as I like 1911's, I would trust my life to my P90 ruger over a 1911 any day. That damn boat anchor will eat any ammo you throw at it. |

Most people have never seen a properly made 1911 style pistol, much less shot one. |

A class is going to use a lot more ammo than a match. i see in every match I go to. IDPA, USPSA, carbine 2 gun matches. the guns just do not work with the reliablity of more modern designs. |
theres a ton of hype w/ everything in the gun world. In my view magpul stuff is awsome and I love it but its plastic women crap. Ar's are awsome and I love mine but its a lot of plastic crap. Same w/ sights etc. The Ak is totally cool and I love mine but its OLD as hell but tough as nails. So far I love my 1911 but so old. Dont even ask about glocks... oh my god what great guns but are those made by Rubbermaid or what! The only true weapon i've been able to touch was an old civil war cannan.. now thats a damn man weapon w/ no "weight" or "comfort" or "reliability" or "tactical" gigs b.s. ...just all man weapon!
