well , i'm stuck with it for the moment , not by choice ...
I will warn you, however...once you've got the P245, you'll NEED a P220. Then a P228 because it's a great wondernine. Then you'll need a P226 'cause .357SIG is such a cool caliber. Then, a P230 for those discreet situations. It's a sickness. Yes it is...
i have already had the 220(x4)-245-239(x4)226(x3)others ...
as for the 1911, well when a high dollar colt failed in 'indian country' at 2:30 in the morning cause a a tiny peice of brass froze the disconnect solid in the frame ...
well lets just say the trust started to go south from there...
ever try taking a 1911 apart inside a sack in the dark by feel ?
only reason i could do it was almost 20 years of muscle memory for stripping one of the dammd things ...
got the disconnect out pried the peice of brass out of the hole and got it back together by feel...
it was an almost nib '70 commander / nickel with an OVERSIZED hole for the disconnect to ride thru...
last colt i ever bought after that little fiasco...
now granted , the PX9109L i have is as good as anything commercial i've ever owned (except for the "B" extractor that was in it ) but my trust is gone for the ability to allow me to carry it ...
naw , enough is too much ... :banghead:
