Re: First time 1911 shooting
I went today to DFW Gun Range and rented a Kimber Stainless Steel Compact. This was my first time to shoot a 1911. I had no trouble keeping the gun on target, and didn't feel the recoil that I had expected. The gun was a breeze to shoot and very comfortable in my hands. The single stack made the grip more comfortable than the double stacks that I have shot. As I reloaded after each round of shooting I could really tell how much more accurate I was with it than most of the 45 cal that I have shot before. The shooting trip has only helped me to decide that I will be buying a 1911 soon, and most likely a Kimber.
