Anybody carry a 1911? by Bigsampson
.380 v 45. Don't think that counts


I've got an OG Delta Elite and a Gold Cup also...



I just don't believe that full size or even commander 1911's make good carry guns.

Maybe a Kimber Micro or a Colt Mustang.

Actually, RIA has an Officer's (3.5" barrel) lightweight aluminum frame 1911 in their catalog. The weight's not listed, but I just had an online chat w/ RIA and they said the following:
"Weight. Loaded 0.962 kg / 2.12 lbs / 962 g
Weight, Empty (Approx.) 820 g

We are hoping to have this in 2018."

The empty weight equates to 29 oz. For comparison, the Glock 19 weight is 21 oz empty and 30 ounces fully loaded.
