    Opinions on my next purchase

    So I'm looking at something new to get and be my edc. I'm stuck between the Glock 23 and a Kimber Pro Carry 2. I've narrowed down between these two. I've shot both and actually like both. Being a 1911 fan, I do prefer the Kimber here, but it's a $300 plus difference in price.

    What do you think you'd choose and why. I can afford the additional cost, but that's different than actually wanting to spend the extra. Looking for others reasons to see if there is a pro or con I've not considered. Thanks

    Glocks are a dime a dozen. A good 1911 is priceless.

    And Kimber makes a good product.

      I have shot both.
      I have a Kimber Pro CDP II.
      I did not buy the Glock
      A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

        What were your reasons for going with the Kimber?

          This is an easy choice, Kimber.

            I never thought a choice between these two would be difficult. If you have the money to get the 1911, I would suggest doing it.

              I would also get the kimber, kind curious as to why u weren't deciding between a 1911 and a glock 21 ?

              I love 40, I guess that's the way most people are. either they love it or hate it

                  There will ultimately be another internal debate between the G23 and G30, if I choose the Glock

                          I'd get a 1911.

                            What else is on your permit? Consistency is important.

                            Can *you* maintain 100% reliability with a 1911? Many can. Many can't or won't.

                              I currently have a full size 1911, it just does not conceal as well as I would like. Butt prints a bit. Yes, I have 100% reliability with it.
