It's heavy. Like, real heavy. I have to put my clipsh holster on the opposite side of my belt when I carry it just to balance it out and not sit or stride awkwardly.
why do you care about what firearm other people purchase? what an insanely childish way to gatekeep something that should only welcome more people into ownership.
do you also care about what cereal people eat, brand of underwear they purchase?
shaking my damn head at you OP, shame on you.
low capacity, expensive ammo. It's not 7.63 expensive, nor is it snubnose revolver capacity, but it is less than half the capacity of a Glock 19 and double the cost per round.
I dunno what you mean, I'm a small guy and it feels like the 1911 was made for my hands. My hands are too small to get hammer bite too.
The a1 is probably intended for larger hands.
Na, frick the non-captive spring and frick the locking link. It was simple for the turn of the 20th century but I'd much rather just flip a takedown lever instead of wrestling with old bullshit. The only non-boomer 1911 carriers are guys that are terrible at trigger control anyways. Single action is cope.
>The only non-boomer 1911 carriers are guys that are terrible at trigger control anyways. Single action is cope.
What is with this nonsense unwarranted vitriol? Relax, dipshit. Single actions make accurate shooting so much easier anyways

I have never had hammer bite from a 1911, a Beretta, a Walther, or any of the other allegedly bitey guns. Are you guys just holding it wrong or something? It's got a beaver tail for frick's sake. Are you shooting it with your middle finger or some shit?
Been wondering this myself. I've seen some people say that only fats suffer from it, but I'm fat and I've never had an issue. I have big hands too.
I figure that you'd have to be so fat that your hand engulfs the beaver tail, but I doubt someone that big is going shooting much. Is everyone on /k/ over 400 pounds or something?
Why would anyone still carry this? It should be reprimanded to some sort of 1930s version of Cowboy Action shooting. Prohibition Action shooting. There, I just invented a new thing. All the 1911s now have a place to go.
They do a thing called Wild Bunch where you can only use 1911s and 1897 shotguns
It's even gayer than regular cowboy action shooting because you can't use any other period accurate guns like Auto 5's or FN pistols or Mausers, because the moronic baby boomers running it just want you to use the guns that were in a kinda shitty 1969 movie
Why do you feel the need to carry a .45?
Why do you feel the need to carry anything else? What is wrong with you?
Because they don't make a .46
they do though
>Why do you feel the need to carry a .45?
Literally the stupidest and most nonsensical question I've ever read posted on /k/
No reason is needed to carry .45
Wake me up when it has DA/SA and a firing pin block
idk every dude I seen open carrying a 1911 looked like he was into cuck porn.
Not all gun owners are republicans man
All porn is cuck porn.
You are watching another man have sex with a woman. What's more cucked than that?
Having a daughter

I don't trust my life to a 120-year-old design that's notorious for jamming
This too, why the frick would I carry 8 rounds of .45 when I could have 13 rounds of .45 or 17 rounds of 9mm?
or seven rounds of .380, but in basketball shorts?
Why do .45 gays always fail at basic grammar?
alzheimers
Why are glock 9mm gays grammar nazis that drive toyota camarys?
>at
*in
I always thought it carried really well and was very concealable because of how thin it was.

>end boss of rooftop koreans
If you don't eat Krave and wear Hanes, you're a fricking homosexual
Because they are afraid of the hammer bite.
Idk you would know better than me stock photo kun
>full metal .45 is somehow a display of physical strength
Theyre probably one of he easiest guns to shoot
This. There's a reason they had such longevity in their original form. It's a lot of power in a compact and accurate package.
>the only handgun you need
It really is. The way it balances and the crisp linear trigger pull, the recoil is easily managed.
No idea. Nothing form-fits the waist like a 1911
ol slabsides is just a heavy ass crutch for limp wristed boomers whose fat fingers couldn't even fit around a harder kicking micro 9
I did for many years, then the P365 XMacro has 17+1 in the same width

I unironically fricking hate re-assembling them. I wish I never bought one. I'd much rather have a P220 or an HK45.
>hate re-assembling
Why though it's very simple
>inb4 thr p220 even simpler
By like 1.5 steps

troony detected
This dude gets it
I've never met a single person that weighs less than 250 lbs who carries a 1911 variant.

Why's it only fat boomers who carry 1911s?
because they would embarrass themselves trying to shoot a glock 43
