[QUOTE="udiablo, post: 2689644, member: 5748"] Interesting, but feel compelled to consider: I first shot my Grandfather's Colt 1911 (a 1917 mfg that he had since 1918) about 54 years ago (it's had quite a bit of use, i.e., have gone through 3 barrels, the last one I put in about 14 years ago). IMO, it would likely run rings around a current production pistol, as should be expected. Someday, if your favorite Glock lasts that long, then maybe you could compare them in a discussion worth having. Based on older Glocks (i.e, more than 10 yrs old) that I've seen/handled/used, as well as the 2 Glocks I currently have it seems unlikely that many will get passed down to our grandkids. So, which pistol will run longer, last longer, in your opinion? [/QUOTE]
