A Glock to a Ford Model T would be more appropriate…both were produced for decades with little or no differences between model years, both were priced so anyone could afford them, and both are incredibly rugged, robust designs.

The 1911A1 was made made with an arched mainspring housing for no reason- the Army found troops were shooting low and the arched housing was to push the natural point of aim up. I much prefer it over JMB’s original flat housing-points way better for me.

Not to mention the fact that it helps to have bear paws to comfortably hold and shoot almost all Glocks. I’ll stick with my single stack Sig 239 and call it good.

You already know what I’m gonna post, but I’ll have at it anyway.

You said it yourself, the Glock grip angle is……W.R.O.N.G. Why else would there be a few companies making serious dough correcting that little deficiency?

That Gaston himself has deemed his grip angle as a hardware solution to a software problem, I’ll liken it to the current administration- I have “fixed” it. It “will” work for everyone. If it doesn’t work for you, you’re just not understanding my benevolent approach. Keep trying, you will adapt and adjust to my flawed rationale.

I own both, and like both.

I have to say, the 1911 is more fun to shoot, but the Glock (22) is more fun to carry than even my lightweight Commander.

Now, the pistol and two fully loaded spare mags in a shoulder holster with 1-inch wide leather straps? Advantage: Commander. Note to self: get some suede for the straps.

No because the polimers would have broken down and they would be on historys ash heap. J M Brownings masterpiece is one of the most copied designs in history. Steel beats plastics!
