fremont,
I think you are right. Which is great on one hand...
Then again, I feel that the 10 round mag limit (government limit, not USPSA limit) has LIMITED innovation...or it will.
I know there is lots of neat stuff out there, but with the government 10 round limit we are back to using a great design...that is 100 years old. Who knows what might have been the next 1911. We may not ever know.
At least we still have a great platform to play with.
