So last week prior to taking a vacation, I bought two pistols:
The Taurus Night Court Judge (to be used as a snake gun for my wife)
The Springfield Milspec 1911A1 (to be my OC gun)
We took the two guns down to Utah for the 4th of July shoot, and had a wonderful time. I can shoot clay pidgeons with the Judge using 2 1/2 410 shells, and the 45LC hollow points did plenty of damage to an old computer monitor. My wife loves the grips, as well as the size; so good buy for specific purposes there.
The 1911 functions flawlessly. It locks up tight, and had zero problems with the 3 or 4 different brands of ammo we tried. Accuracy is much better than I expected (hitting pop cans at 15 yards away fairly consistently), and as it is my first 1911, I really like balance of this pistol. This will be my open carry gun, mainly in the montana back country, so I think it's a good fit.
There's my story, so far about 200 rounds through each gun and no problems. I'll do an update to this thread when both guns reach 1k.
