If this won't raise hell I don't know what will.

There is a time and a place for each gun. I would hardly say a 1911 is better than a glock, nor could I say a glock is better than a 1911 (insert whatever brand you want here). They are 2 completely different guns with two completely different roles. If these guns are competing to fill a nitche in your safe/holster, you need to re-evaluate what the intended uses are.

Exactly! 1911's are what you show your friends...Glocks are what you show your enemies.

But if you want one that will fire every time you pull the trigger, you want a Smith & Wesson revolver.

And yes...I own all three. Imagine the decision I hafta make getting dressed every morning!

If I can find that perfect S&W wheelie,... Ill be joining you.

If you had a P220, there would be no disagreements!!!

I carried one with the PD, not a bad gun, I like the simple take-down.

We've all seen you try to make a decision... it's a wonder you're still married!

But, I believe that any gun worth having covers all three of your above statements, else it's not worthy of keeping around.

gotta have at least one of both! agree w/ GED also. A Ruger or S&W revolver always goes bang (for me anyway).

Well, for a BUG, the absolute perfect wheelie, IMO, is my "vintage" (1985 model) Smith & Wesson model 38 no dash, Airweight Bodyguard. It's the very best gun I've ever owned.

Like a dipshit, I let it slip away in a moment of weakness. Luckily, one of our members here rescued it for me and it is in my pocket as we speak.

Thanks Jimmy!

A short snouted K frame is always a good choice for a carry revolver, but lately, I've got an N frame itch for some reason.

HA! That's what Mrs GED always says too!

HA! That's what Mrs GED always says too!

That's exactly why I said it... my wife says the same about me!

my wife says the same about me!

im sure kara has alot of things to say about of you, not sure we can post it tho, this is a PUBLIC forum...

If only glock would make a 1911.... Just kidding

If you get a 1911 and sell the glock you'll have to start cleaning by hand. On the up side however your wife will be happy to have her dishwasher back


Yes I actually know of a couple people that have used their dishwasher to clean glocks.....

Honestly though, I just got rid of my 1911 to go try out something new. I believe everyone that appreciates guns and shooting should have at least one and be well versed with it. The 1911 is an incredible firearm and endlessly improvable. The best way I can put it is, it's the small block Chevy of the gun world. Excellent performance, cheap to build on, and undisputed ability.
