My last 1911, a Remington 1911R1S, performed flawlessly the first 100 rds. I finally thought I had found a reliable 1911. Nope. No matter how clean and lubed it was, or how I held it, the thing began a pattern of FTFs no mater the ammo. 1911s are my favorite weapons, but they don't like me.
Sooo, off to market it went. Another 1911 disappointment. I now feel very comfortable with my new 5-shot Ruger LCRx (.38 special+P). I'm a steel gun old school kinda guy, but this lightweight baby is extremely comfortable for OWB high CC, accurate as I need it to be, and has the best DA trigger pull of any out of the box wheel gun I've tried in this price range, $420. OTD. My old eyes love that white front sight too. Five rounds in the torso real quick-like should not be a problem, and a jam? I don't think so. I think Ruger hit a sweet spot with this one.
