I have owned 6 full size 1911s: One Kimber, One Colt, Four Springfields... and honestly, after owning a Springfield loaded and a Kimber Custom Classic...
I still prefer the plain jane box stock MILSPEC 1911.
Yeah, it ain't as tight shootin', and the grip doesn't feel quite as good as your hand snuggling up into that beavertail grip safety, and the slide to frame fit ain't as tight as it could be...
but there is something about the classic looks of MILSPEC...
and none of those silly front cocking serrations...
The next time I buy a 1911, it is gonna be plain jane...
Am I "afflicted", or what?
