I really like the new S&W 1911s, great looking pistol with the S$W name (lol, I meant S&W).
The first 1911 I shot was during a Navy Qualification for a Security Alert Team. It was a worn out sloppy Colt IIRC. (no doubt it was worn out and sloppy, I just don't remember if it was a Colt) You could not tell where the round was going to land they were all over the place. I barely managed to qualify.

Needless to say I had an instant dislike for the 1911, that carried on for many years. I then got to shoot a 1911 that was a thing of beauty a Les Baer Premier. And the 1911 Love Affair was off and running.

I currently own the Kimber Ultra CDP II and an Ed Brown Special Forces that I picked up last Saturday after a very long 10 day wait.
