9mm 1911 sacriligious ?

[kAnJii]

Sorry if I spelled this wrong, but at first I was thinking 1911 in .45, but with ammo costing alot especially .45, I started thinking. I love the feel of the 1911, but don't really need the stopping power of a .45, especially if your placement is right. So, what do you think? And makes these models currently out there?

I don't think so. I also want a 9mm 1911 more specifically a Dan Wesson Guardian.

I don't know if I will obtain it but that's what i really want right now.

my amateur match gun

1977 Colt Combat Commander in 9mm, thank you



inexpensive ammo, low recoil, runs like a Deere

I would love one, the classic look of a 1911 and the cheaper ammo of a 9mm.

A 1911 in 9mm is like a V6 in a 60s Muscle car! Blasphemy!
But I need a 9mm 1911 too.

9mm 1911's are a lot of fun to shoot. I prefer my .45 but the 9mm ones are cool and a lot cheaper to shoot.

i love my 9mm 1911....very much prefer it to my .45

this!!!

the only way a 1911 is acceptable in 9mm is if its a conversion kit , in which you can revert back to 45ACP

Welcome back Richie.

Blame Colt for making them in 9mm way back when.

I plan to be shooting a match with mine tomorrow morning, thank you.

Does THIS float your boat better?

Man Doc540- what a sweet unit! I really would like to have a Commander in 9mm!!!! With the roster and all, I've been looking at the Springfield GI Champions as a way to get an inexpensive 4.25" model. I know Rock Island has a 1911 in 9mm, but I haven't had much luck trying to find if its on the roster or not. I looked up their website, but didn't take much more time to try and decipher it yet, and compare the Armscor 9mm models on the roster list, which I don't know what guns they are yet since I haven't found photo's to go with the item #'s listed.

Many years ago the late George Nonte put together a 1911 with slides, barrels, and magazines that could shoot around 2 dozen different cartridges. I don't remember which magazine or book he wrote it up in, but it was pretty cool how he made some strange cartridges work.

A 1911 that can shoot any ammo you find would be a wonderful handgun.

Isn't that niche sort of filled by the HiPower? Sort of, I mean a Browning design in 9mm? I don't know, just seems redundant.
