Looking to buy new P.P.E.

<< < (2/4) > >>

TechGuy:
I picked up one of the Remington 1911 R1's and it is a fine piece of weaponry but I still like my Colt GI model 1911 simple and gets the job done if needed. I have also fired one of the new XDM 45's and it is a superb shooting weapon as well. Just my .02 cents

BigJerm:
Definitely look at size AND holster options before you buy. Trying to conceal a .45 can be hard to do. I sometimes carry my duty weapon and I have pretty much accepted it is going to print under clothes. I am a big guy, but hiding the Glock 21 is near impossible. Most of the time I just carry my sub compact 9mm.

This one should be pretty easy to hide. Single stack 1" x 4" x 6.3

I need some help with this. First off, no comprimise on caliber. Gonna be .45 ACP.
Been looking at a few models & could use some personal experience help sorta.

Ive always liked the Rock Island 1911 model
any feed back on it or maybe a Sig saur P250 full size?
Taurus PT1911
Ruger P345

I really like the ful size .45s but since its gonna be a carry I'd definitely would look into the compacts too.

Thanks,
Lenn

.45s in semi autos are not conducive to daily carry due to the palm grip being so wide.
1911s are better suited due to a single stack setup.

Based off the items you listed above, you are looking for something in the $500 range ?

I would look at the M&PC 45, XDM 45, Kahr, and the Glock G36.

I would heavily consider the glock, its a compact 45 thats meant for carry and is made slimline just for that purpose.

Good luck in your search.
