its hard to justify a 1911 when its basically going to be a safe queen, nightstand gun. I only conceal carry polymers, glock, sig 365, FN FNS-9C etc..I rarely take mine out to the range, basically just practice with guns I carry.I love the 1911...yet i still dont own one...im gonna though dammit. I honestly **** up and buy something else when i have the cash for a proper 1911 lol...like ****in supressors or thermals lol
