I know this is an old thread, but I'm new and still reading through everything!
I love 1911's, they are, in my opinion, the quintessential pistol! That being said however, I only wish more gun makers would make them in calibers other than .45! I know that Kimber makes the Pro-Carry II in a 9mm, but come on, a Kimber just HAS to be a .45. So who else makes one? My husband thinks a 1911 in any caliber other than .45 would be sacrilege
I'm with Compact40 on this one. I'm not very fond of "tupperware" guns - although I do like the H&K USP compact - I like the feel of cold steel in my hands.
Which gets me to my point. That's why I chose to buy the CZ. It has the lines of a classic pistol, while offering all the things you'd want in a modern gun. They make awesome pieces, and deciding which one to buy was very difficult!
Now, I just wish my permit would come in so I can get my hands around one!
