Simply comes down to practicality.

1. It is an old design, and not as reliable as the 1911A1.

2. If you use it for self defense, it will be taken by the police, numbers probably etched on it and not taken care of.

3. If I had one available, and bad guys were at the door, I could and would use it, but there are other guns better suited for that task, such as a 12 gauge.
