Even NRA is dissing 1911's now

[Vaquero]

If we could mix the 1911 and Hi Power, maybe lighten it up with a polymer frame, even add a light rail and trigger safety it would be about perfect.

They both have good features. Discarding the bad ones is the key.

Sigh.

Sounds like a committee creating a horse and getting a camel.

Am I the only one with 10 round magazines for 1911?

I got two and yes, it will feed 10mm as well in my DE.

 

[kyletxria1911a1]

Ok.ok.i have 4 15 rounders. And a confession I also own a Khar cm9
And a kel-tec pf9 so there. But my heart lies with JMB

Well shit. According to the article:
"In response to the clear and overwhelming demand for these firearms to be used throughout the entire course, our instructors have decided to accommodate all safe, reliable handguns with a capacity of 6 rounds or more."
I guess my 5 round SP101 is out.

Glad they pulled their heads out anyway.

It's funny... If it had been about capacity from the start, then why didn't they just state the minimum capacity requirements from the beginning? Excluding the 1911 by name is just odd. There's other single stack guns out there... Guess you could have taken the course with a P6 or PPK??

I'm starting to think they wanted the controversy for publicity.

Good point - Shield, G43, LC9s . . .

Not all publicity is good publicity though. Ask the CLintons.

Why mention the G23 with the others?
It holds 13 rounds, even the G27 holds 10.

 

[robertc1024]

I meant 43.

Looks like the feedback wasn't favorable.

I believe this was mentioned, see post #85.
