seat handel bars ,frame, 2 wheels with tires, pedals, and chain to rear wheel Looks pretty close to me
Our younger shooters and police have been dumbed down to believe plastic is good, hicap mags good, and DA auto is good . We can only hope they wise up

Wow. That's a pretty ignorant statement.
Tell a cop who's required to carry 17 things on his belt that he should want a heavier gun because you think it's better. Tell a cop who's by himself and may be facing 5+ gangbangers that he should want 8 round mags because you think it's better.
To me, and to most law enforcement, a firearm is a tool. It doesn't have to be pretty, it doesn't have to have an history, and it doesn't have to have any sentimental value. It needs to put firepower downrange at the enemy every time it's called to. I trust the Glock design more than the 1911. In addition, they are lighter on the belt, carry more rounds, can take magazines of varying sizes, mags can be swapped between a full size Glock and a BUG Glock, and the amount of holster and accessory options for the Glock is tremendous.
Most devotion to the 1911 I think is emotional/sentimental. I understand all of that history and the elegance a top of the line 1911 can have. And I also understand that a police officer or someone looking for the most reliable self defense tool they can find isn't going to care about that stuff in the least. I don't carry art, I carry tools.
