No I own Glocks and HK's because after years of use and careful thought, they are the top two Service/Combat pistols made.
People/units/organizations who actually know what they are talking about, tend to lean in the same direction.
First of all, The Firing Line forums is like getting your News from TMZ. 99% of their users are Functional Retards. You can find some good/obscure info in there, but EVERYTHING needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
Second, If you actually Read that SD 9 that thread, you would not have posted it. "This was not due to bad reloaded ammo. The housing was crushed by the postal survive. I did contact the other party I'm not sure what the next course of action is. I was in distress when i called them. " If I Run over a gun with a Truck, Do I blame the gun? You have to be some kind of stupid to blame the gun. I can Destroy ANY gun under the right conditions. You are being intellectually dishonest, and its pathetic.
Please let me know when your Steel or Alloy guns can do this:

Absolute Minimal Lubing and Maintenance. Yes there are part failures, but that is the nature of actually shooting weapons. All you fucking clowns who pretend like you have never had parts failures are full of shit , shoot no where near enough as you think you do or must be the luckiest guys in the world. Real world testing doesn't jive with your Internet claim bullshit.
I simply made a statement that the 1911 is not a very good choice for a CCW/Duty gun, and you fuckers decided to open the can and want to argue about it. If I was a little wiser, I would have realized it was a waste of my time and effort to explain this shit, because its pointless. Most people are beyond help.
Sorry Rob, this is my last post in this thread.
