Thanks for sharing your impressions based on your experience. It is helpful in slaking my lust!
I noticed a couple instances when I was manipulating the CS in the store that the trigger pull got impossibly heavy......like it wouldn't move........because I had not activated the grip safety. It has been ~10+ years since I spent any time with a 1911 but I don't recall that being an issue back then. But this is probably just a software thing. I have bird hunted forever and switching off the safety on a shotgun as it is shouldered requires no conscious thought on my end. But manual safeties on handguns are just a challenge for me. I could certainly upgrade my software but I'm not sold on the cost/benefit given the limited time and resources at my disposal.
Every gun I have ever spent any time with had various niggles, some "large," some "small." My focus has been to minimize the niggles by addressing them or dealing with a minor annoyance. The probably of course is the returning thought of, "I bet this new blaster will be perfect this time......."
