I have one of those that I bought as a knock around gun to keep my Gold Cup from getting beat up. Very cheap when I bought it, but it is pretty accurate and has actually held up very well. I would have no idea of the hardball equivalent reloads that it has digested. I don't shoot much any more, but at one time I was pretty serious. If I could own only one handgun, it would be a 1911, hands down. My shooting buddies all switched to Glocks, but I've stuck with John Browning's masterpiece.

Funny thing I've noticed is that a large percentage of the car people I've known over the years tend to also have at least some greater interest than the average Joe in guns.
