Re: Double Stack .45

Dang, you guys came through big time. I have been looking at each of these and cant believe how long it takes to really research all of them. Good stuff.

Re: Double Stack .45

I'm not looking for full size, something I would CC IWB most of the time. So a sub compact would probably be best. I dont think I care if its polymer or not, unless someone tells me its not a good idea. I do like 1911 but not absolutely set on it if another pistol fits the bill better.

Re: Double Stack .45

That looks sweet Skiprr. I like this from their description: "The difference of its steel frame feels heavier in the hand and the felt recoil is subdued". I can see why its on the list. I dont know if I could turn something that nice into my EDC. I would cry like a baby if it got scratched! I do like the fact they are not only made in the USA, and from Texas makes it even more attractive. I will have to put that on my BBQ list. Thanks

I wonder how many others carry nice firearms like that for their EDC?

Re: Double Stack .45

13+1 is about the quantity I was thinking. I already have 8+1 so a bump of 1 or 2 doesnt add that much. I also forgot to mention I want a manual safety. I do like the 1911's a lot.

Overalls on order! But I wouldnt need a pistol then huh? LOL.

Double Stack .45

I am curious about one of these and considering purchasing one in .45 acp. I just want to see what you guys think about it. Good? Bad? But cant be ugly huh? I would want it for EDC. If so, any thoughts on a good one? I know its subjective but maybe some of you have good experiences with a few certain ones?

My thinking is this; I carry a 9mm with 8+1 and have a spare mag in my vehicle which would be the same size. Why wouldnt I want a double stack? On paper, seems to make sense. I also know the average encounter comes nowhere near the double stack's capacity but ya never know right?

Help me spend my money. LOL. Santa Clause is coming soon.
