Firing the 1911 is a pistol experience like no other. Not better or worse, just different.
It's not for everybody. A buddy of mine relayed a description of it: "It's like throwing a lug nut at somebody (real fast). It's almost an archery experience, as the drop from that low velocity, high weight round is perceptably and dramatically larger than just about any other round you can name, short of barrel-loading pistols.
If you're looking for a personal, carry weapon, keep looking. The 1911 is a big chunk of metal, and you'll get to where you never carry it. And, like Ayoob says, 'The best gun to have in a firefight is on you actually have on you.'
