Well...I don't love and drool over them, if that is what you mean. In SASS, there is a big push for "Wild Bunch"(based on the movie of the same name) matches featuring the 1911. To me, that is sort of ruining why I got into SASS in the first place, but I digress...
I have shot various 1911's over the years, especially some really, really rough NG issues back in the early 1980s. I never did like the disassembling procedure. I much prefer the Browning High Power, plus, despite owning .45 ACP revolvers now, I just prefer the 9mm.
As an aside (and not to hijack the thread) For those that do not seem to believe that the 9mm is combat effective, I would draw their attention to WWI and WWII as examples of the 9mm effectiveness, just as I would the .45 ACP.
Just IMHO...
