1911s Suck!

[Aspec5vz]

If I'm going into a "battle" situation I'm going to bring whatever handgun I feel most comfortable with. If I shoot best with a 1911 but can't hit anything with a Glock; why bring the Glock? Reliability won't mean anything if you can't hit what you're aiming at.

Handguns aren't really "battle" weapons anyway, you're never going to go into "battle" with thousands of rounds of handgun ammo.

You can find the AAR's online. This guy is a douche.

I don't care if he is a glock fanboy or a 1911 hater or if he wants to buy out all the stock of children sized clothing from Tapout. I have a problem with the guy who brags about his 'resume' and claims a level of proficiency that he has failed to demonstrate when it really counts. But i guess the old saying is true. Those who can, do; those who can't, teach.

^lol i know right haha

[bubbagump]

This guy has a much better opinion on the matter...with the background to back it up...

So, a coward thinks 1911s suck... Meh...

Cheap guns unilaterally suck. Plastic or steel. But this guy obviously knows what's up -- he's the best.

Like others have said, all 1911 pistols are not created equal; and here lies the problem, especially for new shooters. A lot of people speak very highly of 1911's, but it's either people that have paid a small fortune for a completely built, or reworked 1911.

Then there's the other crowd, they bought a 1911 (insert brand here) and put it in there safe and take it out to look at it, very rarey, if ever, shoot it and claim that it is the best gun in the world.

And now you have the problem of someone hearing great things about 1911's in general and buying a bottom basement model or middel of the road not understanding the difference and they are now stuck with a gun that either has problems or does not live up to the hype.

1911's are great guns, if built/reworked right and maintained. People just need to understand that before they purchase one.

Sweet shirt and opinions.

It's really hard to take this guy seriously when he's wearing a shirt that just screams douchebag.

[Sheperd80]

Well despite this guys shirt... And obvious stirring-the-pot style videos, i think he does have some valid points at times. I equate him to nutnfancy in the sense that his vids may be worth watching and may bring your attention to some aspect of a product, but take it for what it is... A guy on the internet.

stop feeding the troll! let's end this conversation...

[Fishslayer]

That manner in which one chooses to attire themselves may give valuable insight into their decision-making process. Knowing this, some people (myself included at times) leverage our appearance in order to create an image that may intentionally run entirely counter to who we are.

Precisely. I've actually been known to dress like a responsible adult from time to time. Really fooled 'em.

James Yeager can suck it.


The FBI HRT (Hostage Rescue Team) shoots Les Baer 1911's.

The FBI Swat Teams shoot Springfield Armory Professionals.

So much for the "poor choice" argument. These guys are some of the best that ever were, or ever will be.

Buy the right 1911 and do it right the first time.
