Gang,
I have liked the Super for many years and again find myself tempted by a 1911 in that caliber. I have had a couple (Colt Commander, Kimber HD II) and let them go for various reasons. I miss them though. I was thinking about an XSE lightweight Commander or maybe a full size GM from some maker. Ammo choices look limited though. I never thought much about what I carried--usually Silver Tips, but nowdays they look pretty anemic when some 9mm gets up close to that. What do you guys carry for ammo who tote 38 Supers?
I know, as a 45 carrying 1911 guy I should stick to that but I just have a bit of nostalgia for the Super. That and they are just so pleasant to shoot out of a nice 1911.
