Cycle a couple hundred times before going to the field? I want to take it out of the box and shoot it right away. I have dealt with sending a rifle (SR762) back to Ruger and it is a pain in the neck. Taurus had a gun on recall for many months before sending me a new one. Actually got back a pretty nice gun too and Ruger did fix the rifle problem. Is it asking much to have a machine work properly right out of the box? This is what scares me about 1911's. Cycle 100's of times before shooting and needing 5 different type of mags??

I was seriously thinking about getting a 1911 but you guys are frightening me away. You have to care and feed them like pampered children. I have a Glock 21 so I feel I have met my 45 requirements and a gun that never fails. Aside from the mystique of a 1911 and what seems like at least 100 variants out there what am I missing?
