    Would you rather have a 1911 in 9mm or .45 Pros and Con?

    I refuse to give money to a country that has never supported us and is against Israel

    Thanks...Hadn't seen that before. When I used to reload I had different springs for different loads. Especially target loads.

    Oh yea learned to slap those mags in the Corps...no problems what's so ever with the 7 rd mags. You are correct I need to try the 8 rounders with a std weight spring. Even when I slingshot it by hand that round hit low and jams the gun?

    On another note...what ammo do you guys use for your carry 1911 (45)? My choice is the Gold Dot...

    I tried CDNN that's usually my first choice along with mag warehouse, tired Kimber, Wilson Combat regardless of gun or brand...maybe the way I hold my tongue...Now I do have a stronger recoil spring on my pistols...

    Concur with most of you guys...home defense 1911 45...again to me 1911 means 45. But considering what's going on in this crazy time with the present administration. A Glock 23 in 9mm is an excellent choice. Being that most law agencies issue Glock 23s or Glock 17s if in a bad situation there...

    Concur...but have a question. I've had the worse luck with 8 round mags...rounds want to nose dive regardless of which 1911 I try, even my friends 1911? Tried numerous brands of 8 rd mags no luck. For concealed I like the Sig 938...shrunken 1911.

    I guess you can chamber a pistol for any caliber you like. But to my way of thinking you say 1911 I think 45. A 1911 is a great platform. If I go for a 9mm I'll take a CZ-75 or a Hi Power. A 1911 in 9mm limits the number of rounds, makes no sense to me. But whatever floats you boat. While...

    support?

    Do you believe a 1911 should be chambered in 9mm or .45? Could you chime in here with your opinion? Blackbeard I guess you can chamber a pistol for any caliber you like. But to my way of thinking you say 1911 I think 45. A 1911 is a great platform. If I go for a 9mm I'll take a CZ-75 or a Hi...

    What 1911 brands to avoid?

    The first 1911 I used was an old USMC rattletrap from the civil war (only kidding) it worked and was accurate at 25 yards. Let's put it this way, I wouldn't want to stand in front of it. Just like the C-rats they fed us from the 1940's no one died.

    Look at what I just received... Tisas USA - Important Safety Recall Notice - 2024.0001

    What 1911 brands to avoid?

    When the 365 came out I didn't care for the curved trigger...the straight trigger felt a lot better but not as good as that 938...if you are used to a 1911 then the 938 will come as second nature to you. Cocked & locked carry.

    What 1911 brands to avoid?

    If I could get my paws on some of them I would...great shooters. FEG makes a good product problem with them is depends on the year the gun is made as they use parts from different countries...As long as you don't modify it it's great. Talking about their Hi-powers

    Have you tried the Sig 938???

    What 1911 brands to avoid?

    With the world situation as it is, I cannot give money to a country that does not support us. Turkey under the present leadership is not our friend. Just my opinion. As for other brands there are lemons in every case. One of my best shooters is a Frankengun 1911. Remington Rand slide...
