NRA Disallows 1911s As “Primary Handguns” From Its “Carry Guard” Classes
See story here-----> http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2...kly+Newsletter I can understand the reasoning for not allowing revolvers but, the 1911? Wtf, it's a semi-auto class.

1) Trigger Control Issues - the 1911 being a much easier trigger pull and the resultant issues with that (i.e. people firing when they shouldn't or don't want to)... Maybe they want to teach trigger control a little differently... 2) While a 1911's capacity is larger than a comparable revolver, it's still not as good as a comparable Glock/Sig, etc. which can get 17+ rounds in one mag. 3) Drawing - Maybe they have some stats about AD's when people not skilled in 1911's try to draw in "condition 0" |

That makes a little sense but, this training is for people who carry. So, if you carry a 1911, you should train with said 1911. Just my $0.03 The Carry Gaurd Program is thier insurance and training program. I wonder if the insurance part has anything to do with the decision..??..
