As always; a great post "18"! The only thing better than fondling, shooting or cleaning guns is reading about guns. Especially when the content is well written and informative. I bought a CS45 almost 10 years ago just because I saw it and some people often referred to me as "Chief" (don't ask ME why!). Over the years it has become one of my absolute favorites and most shot handguns. It is just that fun! While many have criticized the Hogue grips they make that little "brick" so easy to shoot that it must surely be the "best compact .45 extant". Thanks also for the info on holsters because that is a quandry.
