Well, it's not a milsurp, but no other pistol feels quite so right as my 1911.

I agree the 1911 is one of the best of all times. It has been copied, renamed and modified one way and the other forever. Yet....the basic design is recognized right away.

Systema, Molina, and Star B.

I always wanted a real 1911, but all I could ever afford was this wanna-be Llama from Spain..... :(
