Now, to be realistic. Is a 1911 my preferred EDC? Yep. Have I performed over 10,000 reloads to get a mag change to the state of unconscious competence? Yep...at least I trust myself on that point. I carry 22 rounds on my person and, no, I can't do it nearly like Travis Tomasei does in this clip...with a single-stack 1911, BTW.

Even at the range a vast majority of shooters won't even get a Glock to its full potential, much less a 1911. Gets even more silly when people start comparing a $3,000 1911 to a $550 Glock. Like comparing a Formula 1 race car to a Toyota Camry; even there most people can't get the most out of their Camry.

Buy what you want, carry what you want. I'm going to drive a workhorse car, and carry a workhorse gun. And enjoy shooting ya'lls thoroughbred 1911s when we have range days. One thing is for sure. Nobody is going to be standing in line to shoot a Glock at a range day. Just like nobody is going to ooh and aah over a generic Camry.
