Hi! I’m a Glock fun due his reliability and infinite possibility for customization. I'm confident with it and good enough at point and shoot - one hand techniques. I also have consistent experience with CZ, EAA , HK and Beretta in 9x19 mm, .40 S&W and .45 ACP, only FMJ ammo.
But the dominance of 1911 pistol in sport shooting due their fast and accurate shooting capabilities is without any doubt. I heard that some police agency or individual officers return to their old 1911 models after many years with plastic ones. I’ve already read about some 2011 issues as: failure to feed between 12 th and 14 rd rounds (for 9x19mm), extractor problems or necessity for periodically carefully maintenance due its high dust or dirty sensitivity. It is really uncomfortable to wear a 5 inches 1911 as CCW?
I’m thinking about buying a 2011 5 inches pistol, about 2000$ in 9x19 mm, who will replace my present Glock 17. I’ll use this one as one gun for fun, sport and self-defense… you know, muscle memory and practice with the gun that youn will carried. So please tell me about your experience with 2011 pistols as STI Edge, Tactical DS and others representative models as service or off-duty pistol.
