except, it is. something like a sig p226 is way more reliable. less moving parts, easier to strip, easier to clean, less picky on ammo. I have had zero jams ever with a glock/sig meanwhile a well cleaned, and lubed 1911 will jam every few magazines.

I'm sorry, but what? Even in this video, there is proof your end statement is wrong. Everything else is just subject to opinion.

[@sambeatty2312]

im sorry, but actual experience is to the contrary, the 1911 inspired many guys like the sig 226, but while these evolved and improved, the 1911 was left behind. While it was reliable at the time, it has been surpassed by superior designs. That being said my 1911 is by far my favorite gun to shoot despite having a limited magazine, abeing unreliable, a pain to disassemble and clean.

[@Robloxman01]

The original 1911 might be obsolete these days, but the design itself has been kept up to date. The M45A1 CQBP is still the primary service pistol of the USMC's special operations units. It's still a 1911 at its core, just built to modern standards and requirements. Even the M1991, which is the current "pure" 1911 being offered by Colt AFAIK, is a solid and reliable piece.

[@johnbeauvais3159]

Sam Beatty It is difficult to objectively prove reliability of one firearm over another and unless you have extremely concise criteria for your tests results will be inconsistent at best. For example I have a Colt 1911 that was made in July 1917, I have personally put over seven thousand rounds through it shooting as much as 500 rounds in a single sitting. I have never experienced any failures to feed extract or eject. It has shot every type of ammunition I have put through it from match to cheap blazers. The pistol operates clean dirty wet dry cold hot. I cannot say this for any other firearm I own.

[@sambeatty2312]

you have different experiences than me. I have a custom kimber 1911and while it is an amazing pistol, I have to use high-grade ammo and clean it after every trip to the range. Even earlier today I had it fail to go into battery 5 times. I then switched to a sig p226 which has never jammed, and continued shooting. In my experience guns like the sig have taken the core of john brownings design and improved uppon it. I can dissassemble the pistol in 3 seconds, and because it has fewer moving parts, it is generally more reliable. Again, it is very similar to the 1911, but over a century of improvements in design have produced many superior guns. I would mention the glock, but everyone knows that those things are indestructable, but I don't like the ffel of striker-fires.

Devlin Jones Have you ever shot anything outside of a video game? I have to ask that because 90% of the comments on these videos are from keyboard warriors. "Just by virtue of the simplicity of the design." By that logic, the Mosin Nagant should have a trigger that feels like virgin pussy, but it doesn't.

[@johnnysasakithethird1209]

Mosin-Nagants being sold today are at a minimum least 70 year old surplus, made by peasants for peasants. Of course it feels like shit. The 1911s' trigger does nothing but push back slightly and takes the spring tension off of the bottom of the sear. Though not directly analogous is comparable to bolt action trigger mechanisms. In contrast striker fired pistols like the glock and double-action capable hammer fired pistols like the M9 and Sig sauer rely on an arm attached to the trigger to actuate the sear and release their hammer/striker, account for the relative mushiness of the trigger pull and longer reset times. In summary, the 1911 has the best trigger of any contemporary pistol, assuming quality parts. The Mosin wouldn't be bad either, if it wasn't ancient commie shit.

weird how most american guns are always called futuristic or were ahead of their time the m16 was seen as a weapon of the future that we would see 100 years later in time, but we had the gun now and the m1911 is an old gun, but it's as useful as a modern day glock, and yet, it was made a century before

[@venomsnake5938]

The M1911 is here to stay and it wouldn't surprise me if the M1911 remains in production in the next century. Although i doubt that i'll be around to see the 200th Anniversary of the M1911. At least my children's children will be around to see the 200th Anniversary of the M1911 like i got to see the 100th Anniversary of the M1911.

The feeding ramp is polished to a mirror sheen. The slide's been reinforced, and the interlock with the frame is tightened for added precision. The sight system is original, too. The thumb safety is extended to make it easier on the finger. A long-type trigger with nonslip grooves. A ring hammer. The base of the trigger guard's been filed down for a higher grip. And not only that, nearly every part of this gun has been expertly crafted and customized.

I was shooting my own 1911 the other day, thought I’d share some funny stories. When I was shooting the first expended brass flew into my eye (thank god for eye pro) then the second went into my dad standing next to me and the third flew and hit my grandfather standing next to him. Then the same day when I was shooting the bottom of the magazine crapped out and everything spilled out, spring rounds and all. So the bottom of the mag exploded. I have no doubt this is because the 1911 is built like a tank so instead of just exploding itself like other guns it redirected the force into the one weak point, the decades old magazine.

While for the same price you can get a modern handgun that will last you a lifetime. Kimber production quality has decreased in the last decade or so.
