Happy birthday, 1911.

I'm a 1911 fan, I don't know what got me started on them. I tend to carry plastic pistols and use them more but if i'm just out shooting for enjoyment i grab a 1911. I was able to get one of the CMP 1911's and the one i have was rebuilt multiple times and it looks like the serial number had to be restamped at least once due to wear and refinishing i'm assume. It's nice to hold them and wonder the stories they could tell. Same reason i enjoy my old m1 garand.

Most 1911s just feel good. I don’t know why.
