Here are my Colts:
Here are my Kimbers:
Here is my Sig and Taurus:
Here are my "fake" 1911 frames-Long slide AMT .30 Carbine and Laseraim .45
The Colts and Kimbers are all good shooters. The Sig and Taurus are definetly less accurate. The Government took a match bushing and Dwyer group gripper to get to the accuracy of the Gold cup.

wow im surprised no one has took a jab at me and made of of the fact i own 1911s chambered in the smaller 9mm.....
No flames; maybe you are a girl...
Besides, John Moses Browning himself designed a 9mm pistol so it must be OK.

Oh yeah? I hear the same thing from my father. What's your argument?
Gonna stick with the .22 for now, as much as it pains me. It'll be better for me in the long run, I suspect. I don't want to make a habit out of poor technique.

Everyone needs a 1911.
I own a Kimber Eclipse Pro Carry II. I am looking for another 1911 but in a 3inch for a CCW. Anyone have a 3inch that they would recommend? I am considering an STI or Para warthog. I may even do a kimber in the ultra size. I just cant make up my mind. Just wanted to get some input on what is out there. Thanks
i agree. caliber shouldnt be a reason to not own a 1911 IMO.. lol.
check out the springfield EMP's if you can find one, i posted a pic of mine in the previous page.
since im bored at work, i would like to add that my reasoning on why everyone should own a 1911 is because its a part of history. a design that has been around for so long and has been duplicated and cloned in various ways. people "tend" to stear away from glocks because there is no "real" safety even though it has 3, a 1911 has 2 external safeties. the trigger travel is so short, its kind of hard to not be accurate with a 1911.
i bought my first gun april of 2007. it didnt take long til i caught the 1911 bug. lol.

Most people on the Glock forum don't like the 1911's external stuff. They think it slows the deployment of the gun down. I'm not one of them that thinks that way.
i personally do not like the thumb safety on the 1911, i have no complaints about the glock other then double action. i went from sa xd to glock to 1911 back to glock back to 1911.
im probably one of the few young glock owners that did his own stone/polish work, i miss my g26.

The Glock is my first gun. I works good so I don't think I will need to replace it, but I do want a 1911!
