I don't get excited over guns. Being paid to lug them around for a few years takes the romance and the mystique right out of 'guns'. Still ....
This is a mighty pretty weapon.
An M1911 is the first pistol I ever shot. I liked it much better than the M9 Beretta which replaced it a few years later.
Nothing against the M9 or the 9mm - I have no personal bias one way or the other about stopping power or reliability. My bias is because the M1911 fit better in my hands. I have small womanly paws so the narrow grip of the M1911 fit me better than the wide M9.
Of course not liking the way the M9 felt didn't keep me from earning an expert badge with it. Twice.
Anyway.
Nice.
Yikes. Maybe I'll wait until the price comes downa bit a lot.
