I love shooting my 9mm 1911’s. I started with a SA Ronin 4.25” and found it to be a great shooter. I then added a Kimber Stainless Target II 5” and then an Ultra Carry II 3.5”.

With 1911’s I first went the .45 ACP route, buying a few and enjoying those guns. I got a 9mm 1911 bug about 6-7 years ago, and I remember there was a lot of folks really anti-9mm 1911 for some reason. I remember going shopping at one LE oriented gun store and asked if they had any 9mm 1911’s, and the mid-20’s yer old clerk scoffed at me and said, “We only sell 1911’s in the caliber they were intended to be, that’s .45 ACP.” or something to that effect. I said something like “Wow. Since Colt has been making the 1911 in 9mm since about, oh 1950, maybe its time to open the mind and explore the catalog”.
The kid must’ve thought a 9mm 1911 was a new thing because it was pretty clear this was news to him. I ended up buying my Ronin sometime later, somewhere else.

They shoot really well, putting three mags into the good spots on a reduced silhouette at 10 yds is easy. I say give it a try, I think you will be happy when you do.
Stay safe.
