    Your Actual Cartridge Preference

    I'd settle for the .45 Super, if recoil was the same as a 9mm. But it's not, so the entire post is rendered pretty meaningless., Recoil effects the speed of repeat hits, or hits on other targets, so it's definitely an issue for a defensive pistol.

    List of Guns - - Opinions?

    Ok, here goes Walther, bigger, heavier than a gun that has twice as much power(Kahr PM9 9mm) and nobody considers a pocket 9mm to have lots of stopping power. So why settle for a cartridge with half as much power, and which costs a lot more to practice with, hmm? Desert Eagle. Pointless. If...

There's loads for the 5" barreled 1911 that achieve those numbers, and the .45 swc cuts a bigger hole, too.

    1911 conversions to .22 LR?

    I'd sell at least one Mak, the CZ, &Norinco and get an alloy frame from Spld, and a (used, $400) Colt .22 unit, but I"d be sure to testfire it before buyiing. In any case, get the adjustable sighted version, because sighting in a fixed sight version, especially one with aluminum sights, is a...
