I don't intend to spark a 1911 vs. Glock war, but I am considering the two for my first CCW. My priorities for CCW are dimensions, weight and mechanical simplicity/reliability. 7 is enough for any civilian shootout, so capacity is a non-issue. We've all read and seen the Glock torture tests, I'm sure. But I read the 1911 is pretty simple and tough, too. Which would be small, but still give me 3 fingers underneath, while delivering full-power defense loads into the bad guy, absolutely every single time?
