I have owned and shot three .45 ACP 1911 pistols and now one 1911 9mm. Traded the full sized Ruger 1911 .45 for the new 9mm. I just like it better than the full sized .45. I still have the lightweight SR1911 commander, the RIA compact .45 and now the lightweight SR1911 9mm. Best of both worlds. Plus with the 9mm I now have a 10 round 1911.
