Carried one, and many times two 1911's professionally for 28 years. A 1911 is still in rotation [ Ed Brown lw commander ] but not the primary carry today. That goes to the snub 357/38 [ two of them ] or the g17/26.
I trust all of them, some more than others. Based on over 250K through several 1911's and 120K in one of the g17's, also based on what I see students bring and have more issues with, the G17 is far and away more reliable overall.
Killed two sigs, a 226 in 75K and a 228 in 35K+. Only took a few years to do it for both. I like em though and I'd own another P series in a heartbeat.
