I like the original 1911 and 45 acp , they get the job I need done .
It's like this ... I drive to work in a 250 HP 1968 Chevelle , sure I could have put a 600 HP motor in last rebuild ... but you know what ... I don't need a 600 HP motor to drive to and from work ... the extra 350 HP would be a total waste .
Same deal with 1911 and 45 acp ... I shoot NRA Bullseye 3 Gun Target and keep a 1911 around the house to ward off two legged varmits . The targets dont require extra power , the 2 legged varmits are easy to kill , accuracy trumps power for these two .
I'm over my magnumitis days , shooting the biggest & baddest handgun isn't on my bucket list ... the 1911 and 45 acp with 185 , 200 or 230 grain bullets take care of all my needs ... just like the 250 HP V-8 in my Chevelle ...they both go plenty fast and have enough muscle .
