Kind of sad - like selling historical markers!
I have a 1911A1 and shoot it, just to mind me that some guns were just
crude, heavy, and awkward. And, it's just as sensitive to magazine springs as the Luger.
When you put a Luger in your hand, you just know it was designed to work with human ergonomics in mind. It was carefully machined, assembled inspected, tested, and tweaked. Sure, Colt does all that, but not with the same degree of care and dedication.
I recognize it's probably the most popular and copied gun ever, but it's still an
iron turd to me.
Why would anyone go to the trouble of designing a new semi without fitting for options or a lot of customization? Colt doesn't get the market and they
deserve to go bankrupt.
Colt not innovative and the don't seem to know their own market.
Colt doesn't cater to women and younger shooters. They don't care that
their 1911 design is still a right handed gun! If nothing else, they could have made it more ambidextrous or just build a left-handed model.
A pig with lip-stick, is still a pig!
