new here cos there wasn't a sub for that in particular and got tired of seeing so many gawdamn 9mm "1911s" on r/1911 😅

45 ball seems to do it all. Loving it.

And everything a Glock 21 should have been!
RMR milled slides, tall sights, Holosun, SilencerCo threaded and fully supported barrels. One is set up for 45 Super with Tungsten guide rod and heavier spring.

Both are sporting small comps, they make a huge difference in muzzle flip.

1911 grip angle in Lone Wolf large frames. Both of these seem to eat anything I put through it.

The one with the light laser combo is my truck gun.

Looking for optics ready double stack 45. They are few and far between. Can't find any reviews of this pistol anywhere. The price is so good it almost scares me. Anybody have any experience here?

I recently got a sar k2 45. 1st 45acp. Love it. Now I really want a 45 edc. But I'm asking a lot. I want double stack, optics ready, compact, and don't want a 1911. The springfield xdm elite compact osp 3.8 really seems ideal. It is the same size as my canik tp9 elite SC, my current edc, which suits my purpose exactly. The problem is, it is discontinued and hard to find. Does anyone know of any options that fit the bill? Another option would be the xdm elite compact in 10mm... But I've never shot 10mm and don't know how much more recoil I'm looking at. I'd love to either, find the xdm 45, or find another suitable option. Thoughts, solutions and options would be greatly appreciated.

Picked up this gen 3 Glock 21 SF to scratch that .45 itch, should’ve gotten a 1911 but that will be next

What has your overall opinion and luck been with the platform. I’m picking one up tomorrow

I need a single hook and looped backed mag holder for Glock 30 magazines. Can’t find any in Amazon.

I need it for off body carry bag.

Any suggestions?

I brought out some big iron to finish my week. I wish .45 ammo was a little bit cheaper… I would rack up a lot more rounds DR. #GodsCaliber

The debate between 380 ACP vs. 45 ACP is as old as the two cartridges. Is raw power or recoil reduction better? It ultimately is determined by you, as each round has its advantages and disadvantages. I have my favorite, but in the name of fairness, let’s compare each cartridge in several categories to see which one comes out on top. The winner will be determined by facts, not feelings and wishful thinking.

45 ACP vs. 380 ACP Comparison

Let's compare the 380 ACP vs. 45 ACP in several categories that are most important to shooters: recoil/shooting experience, accuracy, effective range, stopping power, self-defense usefulness, and cost/availability.

After firing both cartridges for many years, I admit to having a bias toward the 45 ACP. I'll set that aside, for now, to help you choose the better cartridge for your situation.

The 44 Special vs. 45 ACP debate has raged for over 100 years, but recently the 45 ACP has dominated the conversation because it offers higher ammo capacity and more ammo options. However, does that mean it’s the right choice for you? As you continue reading, you’ll discover where each handgun cartridge outshines the other.
