Those wiseguys at GarandThumb have a blast with an old 1911, and then compare it to a modern tricked-out 1911.
A brilliant — I mean brilliant — intro, and a conclusion about the old 1911 which made me nod with agreement.
As some other wise-ass once said:
I can’t get over the thumb safety. I hate thumb safeties on handguns.
Other than that. The 1911’s are nice on the range.
