S&W fanboy that I am, I still don't worship and adore S&W so much that I would buy anything they build just because they built it.

TSSH , like their revolvers, I can assure you S&W didn't just build a 1911 just to make a buck, no doubt, they did want to make money. But the bottom line, they built a quality pistol! I have purchased a few S&W 1911's, from the 1st year they built them in Spfld to Houlton, Me and back to Spfld.. I own a couple Colts, Dan Wessons, and shot a few other brands.. I love my S&W... but then you all know that..

yep, you got it right there..

Now some here, in this section of the forum, get all butt hurt cause their favorite guns are no longer being made so they lash out in frustration. It's so transparent.

Gee, I wonder who that could possibly be ... I'll give you 18 guesses..

I own a half dozen Colts and see nothing negative about the 1911 made by S&W or SA or Ruger or RIA.
I draw the line at Sig's and Tauri

Ditto here

Guess I'm a S&W fan.
Guess I am too...
