The 1911 just refuses to die. It’s been at it for well over a century now and remains in production at all levels. Personally, I just don’t get it. Why is such an outdated design so loved? It doesn’t do anything better than a modern pistol, yet it holds half the ammo. I can’t say I understand 1911s, but I do see the appeal of the modern double-stack 1911. Double-stack M1911s at least offer you an excellent trigger and great reset, but twice the ammo. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
