[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 1704172, member: 15253"] I recently bought a Rock Island Govt. model (5 inch) 1911 in 9mm for $399 brand new. Over 700 rds later, it is reliable, as accurate as anything I own, and because it's a nine in a .45 platform, it is about the softest shooting gun I've ever come across. It has that wonderful 1911 trigger, light, crisp with a short reset, and everyone makes holsters, mag carriers, grips, sights, and so forth for the 1911 platform. If I were introducing a recoil-sensitive lady to pistol shooting, this would be the pistol I'd use. Ditto, if I just want to go to the range with 400-500 rds and have a ball without breaking any skin on my firing hand. [/QUOTE]
