So the solution to Glocks which just about every top end trainer/PD/Military runs is to run Sigs with their own set of reliability issues?
Gotta love the gun world.... its like special Olympics sometimes.
Carrying a gun and actually using it in anger/defense are not the same. I could carry a...
"Fine" is a floating term. One that could mean lots of things.
To say that 55gr or other light .223 rounds perform similar to 69/75/77gr HPBT's at range is not even a debate.
Run them in a ballistic calculator if you need proof (since anyone claiming such has never shot at range)
What is your baseline for a reliable 1911? What level of maintenance? What level of training to become proficient?
Its easy to just say shit, it's another for them to match up with reality. History/experience points in a different direction then you describe.
I guess someone else must have typed that on your account huh?
"Again, show me one instance where the accuracy of a pistol mattered in a gunfight? Where someone who had a 1911 would have scored hits where his glock or similar gun missed?"
Your either a dishonest piece of shit or your...
Yes beacuse Chris Kyles book was not littered with made up stories and bullshit, which has been proven multiple times.
Listen to less stories and stick to verifiable sources.
An optic without daylight bright illumination is useless as a 1x sight for reflex/CQB fire. Might as well go with a 2.5/3-15 or other optic where you can save money, increase magnification range, and not be crippled by a compromising reticle.
Yes because someone who is a nationally ranked shooter gets to join the Army, go through Boot camp, Get promoted to E-5 for doing nothing, get special pay/privledges and then go off to AMU for their career where they do nothing but shoot and compete full time is a soldier. Never gets deployed...
That is a training issue. And unless you have some serious formal training with smithing a 1911, then you are in for a rude awakening. Very little on a 1911 is drop in. Many of us shoot 1911's more accuratley and easily than just about everything else. It is still a poor choice. Your money so...
And those units you mentioned (which are a cherry picked super minority) have the money for the insane training and maintance required to make it work. No SEALS use the 1911, so stop spreading bullshit.
When one of the top SMU's in the world who specialize in Hostage Rescue and Counter-Terror...
Wait, 1911's are more reliable than Glocks? Are you joking or doubling down on stupid?
Again, show me one instance where the accuracy of a pistol mattered in a gunfight? Where someone who had a 1911 would have scored hits where his glock or similar gun missed?
The funny thing is, instead...
Where did I say it was useless? Once again, you making shit up, putting words in people's mouth and being the same ignorant jackass clown as always.
Thanks for playing Troll.
Yes which is why the top Counter-Terrorists units in the world, the ones who actualy NEED accuracy to not hit hostages.....shoot Glocks.... The ones who previously used 1911's , and despite the best Combat support and full time armorer support of any entity in the world, dropped them and went to...
Look, it’s my shadow showing up, who only posts in a thread I post in, to try and start drama.
It would be one thing if my shadow gave good information, unfortunately, he has appears to have brain damage.
My own personal Troll, Aren't I lucky?
There really are not "many" military or LE units using the 1911. Outside of MARSOC, I cannot think of anyone in the US mil who still uses them besides maybe some pistol comp shooters in AMU.
On the LE side, I don't know of anyone who issues 1911's other than HRT or some other small tac teams...
Yes Colt is light years better quality than RRA. RRA's can be accuracte but their componets leave much to be desired. If someone gave me one, I would sell it and buy a quality gun. BCM also makes a good gun.
Don't worry about fragmentation or any of that other shit that 99.99% shooters dont...
Anyone who is thinking or carries a 1911 or any gun with a manual/grip saftey needs to read this:

Who cross train into, usualy part of the wounded warrior program or for someone who can't handle Batt/RGT/SF life cycle anymore.
The guys who are winning olympic/international medals, are soldiers in name only.

You are like talking to a brick wall. Dad always told me you cannot reason with a moron, he was clearly right.
The ironic thing is, I almost certainly have more "civilian" formal training in Carbine/Pistol/Combatives/MMA then you even come close to. You are so off base its laughable.
Once...
And yet you show YOUR complete lack of ignorance. We don't need some rehashed history lesson, nor does it take a rocket surgeon to see that IDPA, ISPCA, or any of the gun games have involved from small training into bloated, unrealistic training that not representitve of actual self defense or...
