My dad likes his 45 1911. I like my Glock 17. We took both to the
range a couple years ago and I was WAY more accurate with the Glock.
I'm not the expert, was this the pistol or the round?


It's the shooter. The 1911 is capable of excellent accuracy, but it
takes a lot of practice. Some say that's part of why the US Army
abandoned the 1911 in favor of the 9mmp Beretta.

The only handgun I shoot better than my 1911 is a .357 revolver with
6" barrel. I shoot that one and the 1911 better than I shoot any of
our .22's, probably because I shoot them more often. Mary prefers the
..22's and she shoots them well. She has no problem with recoil, but
she doesn't like the flash of the larger calibers.
