After WWII homeward heading G.Is were asked to evaluate their service equipment The "venerable 1911A was rated as "poor". The main complaint was that the pistol was "too hard to use". One wit noted that the .45 was deadly if the pistol was thrown at the enemy hitting him in the head. Now I love the 1911A ( I have a Kimber Classic). but it is a relatively difficult gun to master and conscripts were given almost no pistol training. The 'P08 on the other hand really is a natural pointing weapon, it is accurate and easy to use. A good choice for a soldier with little or no pistol training. Barry Driscoll |
