Ok I know this is going to stir up alot of people so please let me clarify. The US has 3 major handgun producers, and several newer, smaller companies. Out of the big 3 I feel that the 1911, by Colt, is the best design. A design that is 90 years old. Then you have Ruger, who makes a quality pistol that I enjoy, but nothing to truly write home about. S&W tried a modern pistol and according to most accounts failed. What I am saying is that we never see a truly innovative design come from our shores. Compare this to Glock, Steyr, Walther, or H&K. We now see newer manufactorers like Kahr that are doing some immpresive things. However, how hard can it be for our "Big Boys" to create an exciting US market.
Maybe we should send some design ideas to these guys.
