Even though they are more reliable

bruh 1911?

beautiful

Yup. Spent about 500 rounds through it in the last 2 months. 3-4" groupings at 50 yards. Got it for less than 400 bucks. Im buying another one next week and theres an officer's model in a local shop near me that I might also buy for concealed purposes.

If you want a good conceal carry gun get a glock 26

I have a taurus G2S

Very easy to conceal carry even if you have to tuck your pants in

I want a .45 compact rather than the 9mm compact I sport now. Ill probably give it to this chick Ive been seeing and go with the compact 1911.

Glock 27 has more punch

Same size

A slug moving through a 3.5" barrel will give same performance regardless of gun

I have a 3.5" barrel on my .40 too.

Its good enough for most circumstances

If your fighting longer ranges need a long gun

Nothing beats a hollowpoint from anything that fires.

Thats why I love my 1911. I can engage 12" targets at 100 yards. My AR can hit a man in the chest up to 500 reliably, and my shotgun can keep the coons from eating my damned chickens.

With iron sights?

Yup. I was trained to hit 300 meters with iron in basic.

That's 300 though

Just know bullet drop and go

Moving target at 500 yards takes a good bit of concentration

That takes optics to make it reliable. Stationary pop ups can be had at 500. Thats the army competition range for iron.

I wouldnt engage that distance with iron

Ill shoot stationary targets that far but if Im that far away in a combat situation, the enemy probably doesnt know Im there and Id like to keep it that way

Best part about Glocks is that they are easily modded to shoot them rapid fire

Then the ATF wants to come visit you for a cup of tea and crumpets

I've used it at the range it's technically semi auto

Pistols are fun little gadgets. Very simple yet very complex.

Shoots so fast it looks like full auto

Not really that effective unless you have a 100 round mag very hard to control the recoil

Can't imagine using something stronger than 9mm

Thats why full auto pistols are still not the preferred option for combat. Hard to keep on target. I suggest fixing that issue and setting up a light trigger. You can stay on target with control.

People give me shit about my 1911 all the time but man is it accurate.

Most accurate pistol I own

And one of the cheapest.

I can't imagine being able to use 1911 full auto

Would go flying from my hand

Yup. That slide would make it an anti aircraft after the first round.

Lotta weight moving very fast

You can do it on some guns works well on AR-15 but not on an AK

If I had a way to weld could make it work on an ak

I played with a binary trigger but Im not interested in putting one in my ARs. I have a very short pull competition trigger in my ruger.
