If you pay enough, they can be reliable, right?

Oddly, sometimes I think with 1911s it can be the opposite. I know some folks with bone stock Colts, Rugers, and even Rock Islands that never give them a hiccup. But the ultra tuned high end guns get real picky. I assume itâs due to their âcustomâ high tolerances.

Only Inside The Gates here... đââď¸But I don't carry 1911s.
Guess I'm lucky in that my 'nostalgia' carry gun from back in the days I started carrying (1992) is a Gen 2 G23. When I want to go old school I just load up the exact G23 with the exact same golden saber rounds I was carrying back then.. from the same lot!... and away we go. It's not only period correct, it's period. Swap the ammo with something not old enough to vote and it's no different than any modern reliable carry gun, no excuses required (except for the caliber bois).
EDIT: still have the original 90s OWB leather holster sporting the FBI cant, and my galco fanny pack. I hear those are making a come back.
Sounds like a great excuse to carry two spare mags đI love my 1911's but, there is no way I can carry them. At 5'3" and +/- 100#, I would be walking in circles all day unless I carried a couple of loaded mags on the other side to balance the weight.
Probably why so many people love the p365 trigger. Because they came from Glock triggers. I canât stand either.Anybody can transition from a "spoing" trigger to a 1911 trigger.
It ain't easy the other way around.......I finally gave in about 20 years ago and committed to learning the Glock trigger. I put a .22 conversion on a G17 and went to work. After about 3 months and 5,000 rounds of ammo I had it whipped [I still occasionally Make it go Bang instead of Letting it go Bang].
The transition to a Glock trigger to me having been on a 1911 trigger for many years [1965 to 1986] was and is a work in progress. If you Start on a Glock you can transition to anything.
Try to get your hands on a LCP Max....it makes a Glock trigger feel like a post war National Match Colt. AND pinches the crap outta yo hand!Probably why so many people love the p365 trigger. Because they came from Glock triggers. I canât stand either.
Would.you please explain exactly what work is needed to keep them going for the new 1911 people?1911s are for people who are willing to put in the work to keep them going
I have no desire to own or even shoot an LCP đTry to get your hands on a LCP Max....it makes a Glock trigger feel like a post war National Match Colt. AND pinches the crap outta yo hand!

4 is perfect, 3 is better, 5 never. Jeff Cooper. I like to be within reach of 3.lbs. A little over or a little under is ok but much below that is too light for my intended uses.
