James Yeager: 1911's suck

[Sailor]

In my experience instructing, 11 year olds girls are some of the best students you can ever have. Attentive, smart, energetic and ready for sound foundational work.

Leave the whiney, opinionated, excuse filled drama to middle aged men...

I agree 100% unless their 8 yr old sister is there also.

Hold on here, I have never owned a 1911 are you telling me you pay over a grand for them and have to hunt and peck to find mags that work?

Not if you choose wisely.

 

[HICKMAN]

No sir. That is merely my opinion. Just like what the guy shares in his video. I am sorry if it made your butt hurt.

ah, how cute, you threw the butt hurt back at me.

one of mine was a Wilson Combat CQB... are you saying that wasn't a wise choice?

Just poking the bear.

i've never used anything but the mags that came with the gun...colt, springer, taurus, MetroArms. They all worked and they all worked in all the other guns.

I don't own a single $30 Chip or Wilson mag.

Did you have to "hunt and peck" for magazines that worked?

I didn't with my Wilsons.

Holy Shat! is a hand gun worth it? I just googled the price on those.

Ok, 1911's are works of art.

Glocks are tools.

9 year olds and 1911s jus sayin'

come on, you coulda done better.

Miko is 6 in this one.

Way to many youtube videos for C-Indy not to be posting.

well under $1000. Uses all mags I've ever tried with a bunch of different ammo. I think I'll keep it.

I'll keep this one too

I thought it was pretty awesome, but overkill. I got it for a steal and shot it for awhile, then sold it. Still have my holster and mag carriers if I get another one someday. Just think they are overpriced for what you get.

Actually, I don't think I did.

The Chip's I had from the previous 1911 worked fine in that one.

now this is a whole other argument that I think more people will likely rally to.

to a certain extent, I liken it to Gibson USA vs Gibson Custom Shop guitars. The law of diminishing returns definitely comes into play.

 

[Sailor]

Spose I outta get one just for the history of it. A loose one that seen lots of action would be my choice.

 

[HICKMAN]

You know I hear this kinda stuff from a LOT of Glock die-hards but really don't you WANT your favorite brand pistol usable by lots of different size people? With out the adjustable back strap Glocks are HUGELY thick in the grip area and UNUSABLE by much of the smaller handed population. The critical distance from back of grip to trigger face is way too large on a stock pre 4th gen Glock for anyone with less than average length fingers. I would think this rather large problem would warrant a redesign.
