ALot of people claim 3-3.5" compacts are not reliable. I have attended almost all of my pistol courses with a compact because that is what i normally carry on a day to day basis. I have owned prlly close to 30 ultra sized pistols. Springers, Kimbers, Les Bear, RIA, etc.. I have never had one problem. They have the same areas of concern as the full size guns and once you address those areas you are fine. ALOT and I mean ALOT ALOT ALOT of people who buy the ultra sized guns came from a glock or polymer framed gun. We all know that debate. Glock is better than 1911 because I dont have to blah blah blah... BS BS BS...
Anywho.. I have been doing alot of research into ported guns and I recently shot a ported glock and was impressed with it ALOT! They are not as bad as some would think and they are actually making some ammunition for ported guns. Anywho..
I am always trying to learn something new and tinkering on a new project to broaden my horizons. If I had thousands of dollars and only shot 1911's ever then I would be a 1911 smith full time. I get bored easily and not EVERYONE shoots 1911's. Most of the work I get is randomized and broad. If I am not well versed I loose customers if that makes since.
ANYWHO>>
