John Lovell Offends Anyone Born Before 1980

[JMS]

Re the 2011 it sounds like LAPD and Texas Rangers have been carrying these guns for awhile. Institutionally both groups have a pretty long history with the 1911. Is the 2011 working better/as good/worse than Kimber, Colt, etc with officers?

No, they're just statistical outliers, i.e., agencies that legitimately invested in GUNSMITHING capability.

Most other agencies will want the TRAPPINGS of 1911/2011 organizational ownership, without spending the $$ on the ACTUALITIES of organizational ownership.

Born before 1980, don’t give a fuck.

superlegit.

1980 would put you about the equivalent attitude of a cat.

Took about 9 pages to remind me of my 1911's grip safety. Who knew?

Feels good, points naturally, enough pellets for my perceived risk mitigation even in the old man's caliber.

The world has changed a lot over the past 40 years. People used to know how to communicate in writing and in personal speech. Most of those I came in contact could spell.

...

That recoil AND A THUMBB AND GRIP SAFETY????

The irony.

THUMBB. That's correct, isn't it? Ambidextrous thumbb safeties.

As for booming . . . .

Poet Warrior is booming. I even agreed that he is correct. The 1911 should not be the choice for the vast majority of today's shooters.

We just differ in our opinions why that is the case.

It's quite awesome.
