so do you own a 1911? what do you like about it? i love my 1911 its my first one, its a remington 1911r1 and it shoots like a dream ight outta the box. what mods should do? its a standard 1911 goverment.
Like the sleek, not too narrow feel or grip of 1911's. Many of the modern semiautos have too wide a grip and feel cumbersome to me.
Have other semis but the 1911 is #1.
The 1911 is still around and still popular. That alone speaks to it's longevity and versatility.
If you like the way it shoots I wouldn't change a thing.
You did not say why you bought a 1911 but keep in mind that a 1911 is a "professional's" handgun. It take a thousand perfect presentations to develop muscle memory to manipulate that safety without conscious thought. It takes a lot of practice to maintain that level of proficiency.
BTW I've carried one for almost twenty years as a duty pistol.
I prefer my Colt Agent w/shroud, the best pocket revolver ever made.
I don't own a semi-auto, yet, but I will and when I do a 1911 will be the top of my list. Everything I have seen John Browning has made has been quality threw and threw.
I own two 1911's. Both are Kimbers! They are great guns. Very accurate and reliable. I carry my ultra everywhere I go for my CHL. If you want a reliable accurate pistol, I highly recommend a Kimber.
