John Browning certainly got this design right and over 100 years later it still holds up. I've had a colt commander (.45 ACP) for almost 30 years. It bites a bit, but one of the most accurate handguns I own.

I really dislike plastic guns!! The feel of a 1911 says shoot me, it won't hurt you. But yes, they are a bit harder for CC use, big, heavy, bulky. I know Todd loves his plastic .45's. But I usually carry my little Smith 637, .38+P. The 1911 may get to ride in my truck.

Trade off a little weight in the frame for more rounds. Carry 15+1 of .45

The public is CLUELESS. Heads stuck in their phones (and other places).

As much as I appreciate the engineering of polymer framed guns, over the summer I traded one for a CZ 2075 RAMI for concealed carry. All metal and an absolute pleasure to shoot.
