need some advice on a new pistol

Featured Replies

im looking for a new handgun , im thinking a 1911 this is going to be my first handgun id likke something reliable , comfortable , and easy to operate and shoot , also i know some 1911 come in other cal. than just 45 so if you have a oppion on that plz feel free , im more than likely going to get into steel matches ect. thanks for any help you can offer

The CZ97B is also a good option if you like 1911's but it's a bit wider in the grip!

1st handgun and you know your gonna compete, i say go 9mm, nothing short barrel, full size and I'm not a fan of double action guns for comp cause you have to start double action. Look into striker fired guns as well as the 1911, I love shooting 1911's but also love my XDM's same trigger pull every time... problem now is ammo availability, even if you reload components are hard to get and the price of magazines have shot up so much.. really sucks.. but yeah whatever ur thinking of getting. go full size. I made the mistake of my first gun being a compact.

if you are looking for a 1911 for steel get a 9mm 1911. look into the rock islands or the sti. Look and feel of a 1911 but cheaper to shoot.

Thanks guys , I'm not compleatly sure that I'm gonna compeat it's just a thought , I the case that I want to I'd like a pistol that offers that option also I've heard of the sti n have looked on there page but don't know what model to chose I'd like to be at a grand or less , I've also look into kimber but don't know enough about them , n thanks again

Ok a grand or less I would look at STI, CZ, or a CZ clone if your thinking about maybe shooting, shooting sports like steel or USPSA. Just be forewarned, shoot 1 match and you will only be thinking about when you can get to your next match. Matches are like potato chips, you can't shoot just 1 or 1 type. ;)
