I haven't held enough guns to definitely say this is the case, but I've never ever felt a plastic gun that had the balance and was as intuitive to aim as a 1911. Not even the fnx 45 shot worth a damn compared to my fav 1911, and I had very high hopes for it. I'd love for one to change my mind though
Walther P99 (I do like the Magnum Research MR9 better), Walther PPQ, and Glock 19-5 all do it for me.
