I know the 1911 is popular and considered all All American. Why the intense loyalty to a gun that jams? Glocks are 1000% more reliable than 1911.
Wishful thinking.This is a CMP thread in a C&R sub-forum. Maybe in a hundred years Glocks will be available from the CMP, but for now, 1911s are in the hopper.
On the topics of intense loyalty and jamming, I have a bunch of 1911s that don't jam and a bunch of Glocks. What does that make me ... a unicorn?
Wishful thinking.
A Unicorn is decidedly misogynistic and racist. So no can do for you. So sorry.
You sir are simply and irrevocably confused. (For those very same reasons, I must nominate myself to the team you are on.)
Glocks have their place. They make a strong case given their simplicity and reliability and cost. They do smack of Tupperware; especially when they click into a good kydex.Go team!
On the bright side, I learned more about unicorns. Are they in season? There might be a bad pun in there somewhere.

Some us were weaned on the 1911.
I was seventeen and it was the first handgun I ever shot.
In my opinion, the grip design is absolute perfection.
Is the Glock more reliable? Yes. But it has a grip only a mason would love.
Name something else that was manufactured before WWI and is still be produced in large numbers, with no major design changes?

Hum, I own 3 1911's, none of them are prone to jamming,. I guess the loyalty is becuase a 1911 is steel and wood the way a handgun should be built
I think I'll just wait and see how the new plastic guns hold up over time. I know steel and wood do pretty well at 100+ years but I don't have anything made of plastic that old and the oldest plastic things I have all seem to get brittle.

I own 1911's and Glocks and love them all!
There are some people in the service who can find a reason to complain about anything, but I never heard anyone criticize the ma deuce when I was in. I guess people on the receiving end probably aren't big fans, for however much longer they are alive. I know we weren't real big on DShKs or RPGs.The Browning M2 just missed the cut off and is still in service...
