Thread: 1911 vs P220

I also have a .40s&w dbl stack para, and its a accurate f'ing thing and feels good in the hand(fat grips, good/great to shoot, shit to change mags in a hurry - small hand/cock issue.), the cz sp-01 shadow, just "fits me", all around. i shoot it quick and accurate over all.
The .40 is fun to shoot though

I just like small holes though...


So thats a 1911/2011 40/45, if you want shits and giggles

Or a if you want to win vote, go cz 9mm

@stumpy: ah-HA — thank you for your vote!
@Vapour: good points — 've just waded through the NRA rules and the SIG falls into production which means first-shot double-action-only which would very frustrating (and expensive) at the 50-yard line for a recent shooter like myself.

so far:
— 2 x against the SIG;
— 1.5 x for the SIG (i'm splitting @R93's between the SIG and the 1911);
— 6.5 x for the 1911, a couple with caveats;
— 2 x unsolicited for a CZ; and
— 1 x call for common sense;
— 1 x call for the application of cold logic.

the ornery part of me says bugger to the 1911 bloc but the calls for common sense and logic are beginning to nag at me.
