It dawned on me the other day that in a few years the m1911 will turn 100 years old and there are people that idolize this old design (for 1911-o-philes I said old, not bad). In the year 2083 do you think that people will buy a wide varietty of different M9's made by companies other than Berretta; made with the latest technology and firing cartidges that did not even exist when the M9 came out? Will it be subject to the same worship as the 1911? Or (more than likely) will it fade into obscurity?
Personaly I have nothing for or against M9s. The first hand gun I fired was infact my uncles 92fs. However the M9 breaks no new ground, is not especialy popular in the civilian market and is not nowhere near superior to some of its contemporaries.
What is your folks opinion:worshiped by our great-(great) grandkids or fade away to obscurity; and why?
