OK, I am looking for a steel handgun that shoots 45 acp-
I know about the 1911 - the issue is that I have never gotten too comfortable with that platform what with trigger bite and all (I have fairly large hands) I know I can always go to a beavertail safety, commander-style hammer, etc.
I have handled and shot several different semi-auto's in this caliber, but always come back to the fact that the Glock, S&W, Beretta storm, etc. seem to have a wider? grip frame, which is more comfortable for me personally. I am not, however, completely sold on polymer frames, and I like the single action and controls of the 1911, but wish it had a wider frame. Is there a way to change the 1911 with aftermarket grips to be wider or beefier? Or is there a 1911 platform steel gun with the larger dimensions?
Thanks!
