That's because I only recently traded into this 1911 (traded off a brace of H&K's and a 1301 to another pf.com member for it).
I traded into it as a range toy, then started shooting it more because it doesn't aggravate my tendonitis (all steel 1911 is a pussycat on recoil) since I was shooting it so much and it's proven itself reliable I started carrying it.
It's not very size efficient, but it shoots and carries well and is easy on the elbows and wrists.
My other two "1911's" are a 5" Stainless Colt Competition Government and a Coonan Arms .357magnum.
