I have owned a dozen 1911 pistols, but the smallest I have ever owned is a lwt. Commander. Thousands of rounds through longslides and Govt. size pistols, but not a cap fired in the compacts.
I am interested in getting a smaller 1911 for CCW. There is no place around here to rent one and I haven't talked to anyone who has a small sized pistol other than one guy with a Springfield V-10 compact.
All BS aside, what is the smallest practical size 1911 that remains shootable as far as handling and recoil? I am thinking something along the lines of a Stinger or the Kimber Pro Carry. Any other recommendations?
