I' don't remember if it was two separate gun fights or the same one but nevertheless ,That's why I don't, I won't, and I will never trust a 1911 to save my life. Every 1911 I've used or handled have all jammed or malfunctioned in one way or another. Ruger, kimber, colt, Springfield, and a couple others. I have handled. All messed up. Ill stick with my Glocks.
On the opposite end of the spectrum I own 3 Colt 1911s, a A1 .45, a Commander .45 and a .38 Super out of several thousand rounds very few malfunctions never a "Jam" that couldn't be quickly rectified. I shot some pretty well worn ones in the military still shot you just didn't know where it was going to shoot once it got heated up. To each their own.

Re: Ban Cops from Glocks

Hate articles like this that mix issues. My thought are training/practice. I practice about 3 times a month and try to do some type of training once per month. Wonder how many LEOs have that opportunity. As far as the article personally I think trigger pull weight and break weight have a greater impact than travel length.
