Re: a move to a 1911?
Moving away from a 1911, somewhat reluctantly. Have one I am trading in on a new 9 mm pistol that the wife can handle. Don't get me wrong-- I love the 1911. Ergonomically, the best feel of any handgun, in my opinion. It's just that, as a breed, it's a high maintenance gun. Except for the ergonomics, the Glock 30 meets all of my requirements. Would love to be able to afford a Les Baer or Rock River commander sized 1911, but it would stay in the safe most of the time. 1911s are like Corvettes-- we'd all like to own one. The Glocks are like Toyota trucks-- the gold standard for durability, low maintenance, and dependability. Maybe if I hit that Lotto, I'll give Mr. Baer a call.
