A lot of chicks & senior citizens have 9mm 1911s.  They probably all love it.

 

Troll..don't feed the troll

First laugh I had all day was reading the troll comments! I have a colt 9mm 1911, 5" barrel 70 series converted to 38 super, usually called the 9mm on roids. Nice shooter.

I have a STI Trojan and a Springfield Loaded in 9mm. Both are great guns for shooting steel.

 

Get one and you will love it.

 

I have 6 other 1911s in .45 ACP

One's opinion is another person's toilet paper.  Did it ever occur to you that some folks just tell it like it is.  You guys are too PC these days.

45 has the knock down power to bring those plates down.  Aren't we supposed to make things better, not worst?

you mean not worse. 9mm 1911's have their place. Why spend to shoot 45 all the time.

Some people do..you aren't one of them

I finally got out last weekend to shoot steel!

 

Hey, those Para guns look nice, who has some info on them?

Mike let me know what you find out there was a few of them I liked too but hav not heard much on them

In that price range, the STI and RIA's are probably your best bet. If you look around a little you may find a used Springfield Loaded 9mm for around $800. Or of course you could save up a little more and go for a S&W Pro series 1911 in 9mm.

Yup, the S&W 1911 is nice and probably on my to-buy list. Still have one more permit to burn. Thinking of Blue-Lining a double stack .45acp Para 1911.  

Can't go wrong with any STI in 9mm. Spartan or a used Trojan if you want a single stack..

Are you sure they weren't STI's?

kimber 9mm 1911 large poppers heavy cardboard.. two 40cals before me had failed to knock down one of the poppers..

 

I wasnt until i got my Taurus way cheap and put hougue grips on it...Now a 1911 lover....Goin for Wilson one day.

I have owned a few 9mm 1911's and finally realize that a Glock was more practical and easy to work on without a gunsmith. I bought my first Glock 3 years ago after shooting for over 4 decades. I do not like how they look. Am not proud to own one. Do not show to others who want to see my gun collection but the damn gun works well, can put a 3.5 lb. trigger on it with good sights and have a fine competition/home defense/range gun. Get a Glock 19 and you can carry it too, as I sometimes do. It is my go to war gun for when I travel outside of my retirement community and go to areas where I am not allowed to profile people.
