Hi all.
I'm thinking about getting into some basic combat pistol training. I'm very familiar with the Colt 1911 design and would like to stay with it. There are many different companies putting out brownings design and I would like your advise.
My criteria?
Reliability in all ways is mandatory. It needs to feed EVERY TIME.
To get that reliability a minimum of money and effort should be used.
Primarily I will use standard 230 grain jacketed ball, but I may want to use 230 grain HP's (reliability mandatory)
Full size is preferred. But I might consider a four and half inch barrel.
8 round capacity is fine, (more would be better)
Stainless is my preferred finish.
Can't think of anything else offhand. Mainly to be used for combat training courses and if all else fails will be a primary defensive arm.
What am I missing and what kind of advise can ya'll give me.
Can this package be done for under $800
Thanks in advance!
