For the record, the M9 or 92FS is a piece of shit.

is laughable. The M9 requires WAY more routine maintenance and replacements than the M1911 ever did. It's a turd and the only way you could have gotten a nice one is because you're in the Air Force and none of you bitches ever has cause to use one in the first place.
That being said, it's not the worst piece of shit out there, but for $500 for a used one, I'd rather have a new Norinco 1911.
