1911..

Nothing beats the feeling of holding and shooting a 5" barrel 1911 in .45 acp as ordained by JMB. Period!

Fixed it for you.

When I first started working on 1911 pistols seriously in the '80s I was astounded to hold a frame and see the engineering genius of John Browning. And today I am still astounded by all of the guns he designed. The fact that the Browning Machine Gun is still in use by our military worldwide is quite a benchmark.

THE Browning Machine gun? Just like his pistols, Mr. Browning designed more than one machine gun. If I remember correctly, he also designed the .380 ACP, .50 BMG (round), and the .45 ACP, and most likely others.

Agreed! The 1911 A1 is a classic firearm, lot of history, parts galore, and most work without being redesigned. I have owned many different ones over the years, and never really had issues. The magazines are also important, and need to be fired to prove dependable. Good luck and always carry condition #1. Cocked, locked, ready to rock.

The Japanese fighter brought a knife (basically a spear) to a gun fight on that one it sounds like.

I saw “1911” in the title and I clicked.

I’m a simple man. Or simply easy to manipulate.

I've had Rock Island Full Size .45 1911 twice and kept switching out to something else. Got a Springfield Ronin recently and I've been really enjoying it. It's just a smoother operating pistol that is now part of my rotation.

 

[DadSmith]

Anyone have one of these or are they something new out?

gets expensive to shoot at a buck a bullet

Dollar a bullet? What the hell is it chambered in?
