Been reading as much as I can, and I'm considering a 9mm in a 1911-style pistol.
I see that Springfield is offering a full size 1911 9mm as well as some of the higher end (read: more expensive) makers.
Anything negative about the 9mm caliber in a 1911-style frame?
Cycling or reliability problems?
I'm not asking about the effectiveness of one caliber or another in a SD situation, just about the mechanics and design.
I have my own reasons for considering the 9mm caliber itself, just wondering if there are any drawbacks I should know about before I lay down the money it's going to take to own one.
thanks
