Your thoughts on compact 1911s

[bill o]

every time he says Dynamic Critical Incident, a glock kabooms. Its the natural balance of the universe

Glocks kaboom because of the type of people who own Glocks.

A 3'' 1911, if made well, will function OK with hardball, two hands on the gun, firm grip.
But start feeding it JHP, especially +P, and shoot one handed, and you'll have nosedives. That's 1911 inherent design flaw fully explained here, and 3'' guns are more prone to nosedives than their 4.25'' and 5'' sisters.
Can a 3'' 1911 be made reliable with +P JHP and limpwristing? Yes, it can if you don't mind doing some gunsmithing and trying various springs to make it work right. Otherwise, keep shopping.

Aren't all rock islands boat anchors?

Obviously spoken by someone that has never owned, nor fired one. Was Snopes your source????

I said mine wasn't fit to be a boat anchor. I've got more respect for boat anchors than that.

Uh....just google "Glock Recalls" for some entertainment! Glocks MUST be junk.....even though I've never owned on, nor fired one.

No just using the same logic as the negatives in this thread. My uncles third wife told me that.
