Are 1911's too antiquated these days?

Great episode. Smooth and fast. Makes me miss my SPAS12, boat anchor or not.

Bul Armory also makes a very good version of that little Stacatto.

Bul SAS 3.25'' UL is a good cc.

I just got the SAS Tac Pro! Waited a year for it to be in stock and missed out the last couple of rounds.

I'd say the 2011 is the new 1911.

A 1911 is my favorite handgun, purely due to aesthetics. I think it’s an absolutely beautiful piece. My affinity for them honestly never had anything to do with how well they shoot or whether or not they’re relevant nowadays.

I've never "rejected" 1911's, they're just not practical for me. From a self defense perspective, they've got too many "not go bang" issues to resolve. Now, I like them, and I'll shoot everybody else's, but I won't own again.

This is where I am as well. Still have one but I will pick up others before it.

The only reason I had one at one time was because a friend of mine had pawned it, and I told him I'd get it out of pawn and he could pay me back when he could to get it back. He did finally get it back about two years later, along with a Glock 20 he pawned. I took it out a few times, and decided if he didn't want it anymore, I'd sell it because it just wasn't for me.
