    Needs gold plated small parts to complete its pimp gun look. Craftsmanship aside that's the ugliest 1911 I've ever seen.

    Got to shoot this thing today. Browning 1911 380. I have a feeling this gun is going to change the market on 380s. I'm tired of 380s being so small. I'm good freinds with a guy who writes up reviews and they sent him one to try out. http://www.browning.com/products/interactive/firearms/1911-380/

    I also shot a 300 win mag today. Omg my shoulder :rofl:

    My next 1911 will probably be a 10mm. A Wilson .45 is still on my list thought.... Someday.

    Interesting. I'll have to go check one out, I'm 6'4" so I'm imagining it may not fit my hands.

    I'm a little surprised they never paired .380 with a Hi-Power. Seems logical.

    You may be surprised. There were a few bigger guys that were holding it and they seemed to be OK. I learned today that you're supposed to hold the trigger a little differently with the smaller guns, but I still have to try that out.

    It may be :notsure: I don't know a whole lot about 1911s. Is it normal to only be able to put on the safety if the hammer is back? Because that's how this one is.

    We do have a few Dan Wessons at our store that everyone loves though lol.

    Completely normal. The 1911 is intended to be carried locked and cocked.
    3 things must happen for the weapon to fire...
