Would a 1911 really have an advantage in "production" (or CO)?
I suspect the answer is "no" versus the tricked out guns in those two divisions. If that's the case why maintain a separate, small division? I'm more interested in steel challenge and have aged out of any opportunity to become competitive so don't really have a dog in this fight. Given that the logic of the ancients really no longer applies why hasn't the power that be just moved on beyond SS?

I always compare my Production scores to SS at local matches, to increase the M class competition. But it’s hard to make a fair comparison because every single 1911 at my club doesn’t work reliably. Did I win by shooting better or because my S2 didn’t choke?
I would not welcome such a change because I want to compete against other Production shooters at major matches.
