[QUOTE="1911Kevin, post: 2081776, member: 25896"] If your like the .45 ACP, the best choice if your not a small person, is the 1911. As Buzzdraw stated though, they can be pretty heavy for all day, especially if you don't have a solid holster and heavy belt. There are options for a lighter frame to shave around 10 oz., but they generally involve a alloy type frame. Nothing wrong with that unless your going to shoot a ton. My understanding is they are not generally designed for heavy heavy range use. I personally carry a 4" 1911, but I am a bigger guy, so it doesn't affect much for me. [/QUOTE]
