But when you look and listen to everyone and their over $1K-5K 1911's, I think that not everyone takes into account, that if they had to use it that they would have to give it up.
Yes, I am with you, it makes no difference what you have or what it costs, you GO AND USE IT..
But I wonder how many CCW's actually think that if they had to use it they would have to give it up. The other thought is how many CCW's could actually draw down and use a weapon if they had to.
Would I, well yes but I watch folks at various ranges and in shoot house exercise and the world is different when some one is coming at you with a weapon or just trying to hit a piece of paper.

Any way, 1811, Glock, M&P, Wheel Gun as long as it goes Bang, I am there.

Yep, I get you...just make sure it goes bang every time when you need it too.

Gary....how does the Ruger LCR 9mm recoil? Its my next purchase, waiting for the price to drop a little.

mounted on the column of my truck is a 1911 Colt CCO. Easier than fighting the seatbelt or tight jeans in a crisis situation

80% of the time, I carry a Kahr PM9

The other 20% is : 1911, G19, P238

It has very little recoil and at last Sunday's Gun Show in West Palm Beach it was $475 at one dealer and the rest were at $569

If you want to shoot it tell me when you are in my area and I will set up a time to go to the rage with you

Mike, I like the idea too. Do you have a picture of how you mounted on the column? (Steering Column? or Door Column?) Not being stupid here, but.... yup!

Everyone should carry what they are comfortable with. I'm not going to say what is right for someone else.

I carry a Sig Ultra 1911 because besides being small and light enough to carry in a pocket holster (cargo pocket) it is the most reliable pistol I've ever owned. It is bone stock because there is nothing I would want to change about it. I have run an IDPA match with it and I did not feel like it was a handicap.

I *have* shot a G***k. Did not like anything about it. There is only one tupperware gun I have enjoyed shooting, a CZ P07. Great trigger, great ergonomics, and accurate.

What's interesting to note is that while we may agree or disagree we're civil about it. While in another forum they had to close the thread because they were afraid for where it was going.
You guys are all right in my book.
