I am purchasing a 1911 in the next weeks, and was wondering what the difference in recoil between the 4.25" commander size and officer/compact size are?
I'm looking at either a MetroArms AC Commander or a RIA CS...either or with the beavertail and combat hammers....
Anyone with experience with either of these?
I've read a lot about how the RIA's are dependable out of the box, and with the AC how it's hit or miss with whether you get feed problems.
Any helpful advice would be awesome. My wife will also be shooting this occasionally when I can drag her out the the range until I get her a 38 special revolver...she likes the look but hasn't shot/handled one yet...
Thanks,
TT
