I like the 1911's well enough but I haven't been conditioned to drool pavlovian style at the meer mention of one. So a long time ago I walked into a gun store and there was a stainless 1911 siting on a blue plastic S&W box. A closer look reveled it to actually be a S&W 1911 in 45 ACP. The whole S&W is making Colt 1911's thing made my mind hiccup. After I managed to wrap my head around this simple concept I bought it. It's a perfectly fine 1911 and it turns out is the three hundred and first 1911 S&W ever made. It's old enough that I was able to order a Kings left handed safety for it straight from a catalog. That was while ago. Mr. Hrfunk I've watched a number of your videos. It's interesting how different state agencies place there emphasis in different areas. You end up wondering what experiences the training officers are basing the training off of.
