Well I've been a glock owner for a couple of years now and absolutely love it! Got my carry permit and carry it everywhere I go. Its my girlfriend! My one true love. Lol...but I'm tempted on getting a Sig 1911. Never owned a 1911 but I feel it coming! Glock is flawless and wont get rid of mine just wanting to see the grass on the otherside. What are the pros and cons of the 1911?

I have 8 1911s. From a custom built sub compact a little smaller than an officer's model to a compensated "pin gun" built from a Colt Gold Cup. Commander, Combat Commander, Full size, custom, Gold Cup National Match, etc. Only the GCNM is factory stock. Love them all. Completely reliable and very accurate.

BUT--- I also have 7 Glocks. Olympic 17s, 19, 23s, .357 barrel for the 23s. Love them all. Not as accurate as the 1911s, but they are stock and 100% reliable. I carry the Glock. They are lighter, carry more ammo, inexpensive, you can't damage them, work as well filthy as clean, totally reliable.

Yeah I will still carry my Glock as a everyday weapon. Its easy to conceal and light weight. Will pick up a 1911 cause its a 1911! Lol. I've been looking and not concerned about the prices as much as a reliability. I bought a glock because they are all of the above. I want a 1911 that's the same. Yeah I'm not putting 4 grand in a pistol that will serve the same purpose as a $600 one. Just ignorant about 1911's cause I've never owned one. Love the information so far so keep it coming! It all helps!

If he was refering to Kimber then the answer would be yes. Dont get me wrong, I like Kimbers, but with all the problems that they are prone to, I would not be trusting my life to one. I cannot speak as to the other makes, since I have limited knowledge. I sure like the sigs though.

I've been looking at the Sig 1911's and they are priced very reasonable($987) The local gun shop is a Sig Dealer so they have everything Sig has to offer. They are nice just haven't shot one though. Going to put that on my to-do list in the near future.
