I think if yo...I disagree with the entire premise. I think if you're shooting .45 ACP you've got enough points in the manly scale regardless of if you use a Glock or a 1911 (though like Glen I like mine in a revolver form). The debate between Glock and 1911 for me is the debate between casual shooters versus serious shooters, or more like the AK versus AR debate. <br />Glock is good. The Glock is the AK of the pistol world. Simple to use, simple to maintain, nigh indestructable, and in my experience it will eat any ammunition you can find and spit out the cases with nary a jam or stovepipe. But it has flaws that the more serious shooters will point out. My personal dislike is the double-action only trigger.<br />But the 1911 is for the serious shooters. It takes more training to use and maintain, it can be finicky about ammo. But it is more accurate. Real shooters prefer the 1911.<br />I will not disparage someone's manliness for choosing one over the other. I do however reserve the right to make pointed comments if you think the .45 ACP kicks too hard.formerly dfwmtxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533651942397782565.post-66279551100977497592016-04-21T07:24:26.150-07:002016-04-21T07:24:26.150-07:00Real women shoot.Real women shoot.Brighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11299215170393879517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533651942397782565.post-36985077483444723512016-04-21T05:18:16.011-07:002016-04-21T05:18:16.011-07:00I'm very fond of my Kimber 1911.
