) I have 3 1911s that I use as competition weapons and they are tighter tollerances than my carry weapon and therefore have had the occasional FTRB or FTE, however the CCO has been 100% from the outset using JHP. I think if you try a 1911, you will be impressed by the function and the ability to put a hole just where you want it.Search found 1 match

Re: a move to a 1911?
I started out carrying a P229, then transitioned to Colt Combat Commander and recently converted to a Colt Gunsite CCO when I started carrying 24/7. The overall design of the 1911 is a genius of mechanical engineering and understanding of enertia and reaction. The multiple safeties are great, unless you drop the weapon on the barrel from about 12 feet (so don't drop it if you are using it to nail shingles on the roof ) I have 3 1911s that I use as competition weapons and they are tighter tollerances than my carry weapon and therefore have had the occasional FTRB or FTE, however the CCO has been 100% from the outset using JHP. I think if you try a 1911, you will be impressed by the function and the ability to put a hole just where you want it.
