First 1911 was a Kimber Custom Stainless that had an untensioned extractor. I coulda fixed it myself but was too bitter about it not working and sold the gun. I was used to shooting my HK which couldn't break no matter how hard I beat it up.
Second '1911' was a KZ45 which feels completely different and I didn't shoot it well. So it didn't really count.
Now peer pressure and marketing have got me wanting another 1911. That and it's the fighting handgun of true tacticals and maybe I'll rediscover love for it once I shoot it again extensively.
I like my P7M8 but the itty bitty slide stop and tiiiiiight slide make it difficult to manipulate for things like class 3 malfunctions. Cleaning the gas system can be a pain.
The Beretta is my true love but it's become something that I must send out to get the configuration I want. I'm tired of screwing with my guns and want something that's good to go out of the box. But I'm worried about having to send the 1911 in for reliability 'issues' like I had to for my first two 1911s. (extractor on 1st 1911, sear on second 1911).
I need help!
(Too bad I just sold all my mags for it )
