Yeah, they can be a thing to like
OP probably ought not borrow one of the 50gi 1911 variants, they have a very pleasant sort of 'authority' when lit off.

Yep.
While I own many 1911’s, the RRA Limited Match is my favorite…

I like 1911's too. Fortunately guns don't get jealoius like women, so I equally enjoy my Glocks (which really are more practical in my opinion). I recently got me a 1911 in 10mm just for deer hunting- it is the Tisas D10 model which is a good looking nicely built 1911, 2 tone with adjustable rear sight and the usual layout expected of a nice 1911. I have been pleasantly surprised with it so far and I am looking forward to dropping a deer with it this fall.

It is but if I'm "good" with a 1911, it's because of time spent with my Ceiner conversion.

I like a full size .22 1911 for the grip practice.

1911s are by far my favorite pistols to shoot.
Here are a few of mine

They are my favorite centerfire semi-auto. I'm down to only two now and seriously doubt I will ever buy another. I do own a GSG 1911 22 that I turned into a race gun with a lot of Taylor Tactical parts that is serious fun at the range and I shoot it more than the other two combined. It kills a piece of paper or coke cans just as dead as the others with a lot less fuss and is seriously cheap to shoot compared to the others.

Yeah, that was totally intentional
I thought I had 18 but there are only 17 present.Need to track down the lost sheep (orgo buy another to round out the pic).

alongside that. check out the Standard manufacturing 1911. I have a late 60's python in blue, and if anything the blue on the standard is deeper.

For the most part I agree, but there are exceptions.
I have a Tanfoglio Limited 10mm that is AMAZING. Also a S&W 686 no dash worked by an unknown smith which has an unbelievably sweet trigger.

1911 style triggers are right up my alley. BUT an exception can be made for the CZ TSO and TSO2 and checkmates. For target work these are among the best. Sorry for digressing from topic.

Tago 10mm is bad to the bone! Eats everything I ran through it.
Only complaint is tracking down the brass in the next country

One in each centerfire caliber: 9mm, .38 Super, .40S&W, 10mm, and ,45 Auto. Nothin' fancy, all reliable.

Mark,
If you don't have one, go for the Colt/Walther .22. It is a great shooter. It became my primary 22 suppressor host until I got a S&W Victory.
I still use it to train novice shooters often.
