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..........
Sounds to me like he's a bit late to the game I didn't think GregR was such a purist... or is that GregB?
I kinda like the Browning HI-POWER and the 2011 myself Maybe not to be mentioned in the same breath, but certainly the next.
I love the BHP because of the 1911 family likeness... A CZ is seen to be in that family line as well, Superior Genetics
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.
