Hmm, How About A 1911?

Posted by: BillH in Guns

Xavier put up a very welcome post yesterday, Choosing Your First 1911.  For some reason, he felt the need to qualify it first

I want to quantify this blog post by stating I am no expert. I have owned a lot of different 1911 style pistols. I have shot a lot of 1911 style pistols. I carry a 1911.

And I’d like to say Thanks Xavier! because I’ve never owned one, shot one, or carried one.  Every time I’ve felt the urge, gone by the shooty stores to look, and started reading the forums and articles available on the net, the know-it-alls and PTs (pompous turds) frustrate me, and I go find something else to shoot.  But if you’ve read Xavier for any length of time you know who he is, and his advice carries some weight.  I’ll have to read this one again.   I might need to fill a hole in the safe one day.
