They make pretty good stuff.

 

The only 1911 I've ever shot was a Kimber of some sort at Bob's, and I didnt like how wide (front to back) the grips were. I've held a Springfield GI 1911 and it didnt feel bad, but I still prefer the thinner grip of my XD45 over it.

 

i should have been more specific.when i said carry,i meant in my car.it stays on my nightstand,goes with me to the car,and comes back in when i get home at night.the few times i have actually carried it on me,it was on the hip.definitely too large to comfortably hide.


BTW-excellent pic on top of the Parents magazine

Ahh, gotcha. I know that routine, I used to do it with the Colt until I bought the holster. Do you have a holster for it? I've got a Fobus laying around, but I don't know if it fits a P90.

Parents mag, haha, never noticed till now.

 

Taurus PT 1911.

Also PM blaxican25. He probably has forgotten more about guns then I'll ever know.

 

judging by your screename I'd say you played a lot of doom, lol.

BTW, you cannot go wrong with a springfield. I'd really like to have a mil-spec 1911, but alas I have other things to push money torwards at the moment. I love my XD though!

 

i've got a clip-on holster for it now that i just fit to my belt whenever i carry it.works well.

A friend carries the Kimber Ultra Carry II. I was considering it as my next purchase. It feels good, but I've never fired it.

 

you need to.i'm still amazed every time i shoot Rob's Kimber.i've never shot any other .45 that has as little recoil and muzzle lift as that gun.with my .45,you basically have to re-aim after every shot.with the Kimber,you can practically unload once on target,with very little or no correction needed.my .380 isn't as easy to shoot.

You're very convincing. That's exactly what I like to hear.

I need to find out where he got it if he bought it in town... I'd like to scope it out this week or next week before it's too late. I like the idea of unloading, accurately, with little effort.
