I love me a good 1911. It is one of the coolest guns ever made it was so far ahead of its time. But it is a timeless piece that is never going away. I would love to know how many 1911's have been made. I know it smokes the number of glock's made. I am just a dumb diapered Okie that is always packing. I have a 1911 but I carry a HKVP9SK. Long live our second amendment!
