    After serious contemplation, the creation from the fertile mind of John Moses Browning, the 1911, is the best handgun ever devised. No others need apply..........

    Until someone points out that the 1911 is more Heinz 57 than .45acp.

    Sounds to me like he's a bit late to the game :rotfl:

    I didn't think GregR was such a purist... or is that GregB? ;)

    I would take a Hi Power or a Cz75 over a 1911 any day of the week.

    I love the BHP because of the 1911 family likeness... :love:

    A CZ is seen to be in that family line as well, Superior Genetics :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

    I guess I should mention that the only 45acp that I own is a HK45. I have owned three different 1911’s over the years. ( cheapo Amt, Ruger sr1911, and a series 80 Colt )And shot others that belong to my friends. I just can’t make myself like the feel of them.

    And those "cheapo" AMT's came with Barstow barrels and all stainless. I did the spring kit in 2 of them and have shot 45 Super in the Long Slide for 15 years.
