The 9MM cartridge has been my favorite for some years, and I've had several 9MM 1911s, Colt, Kimber, Springfield, Dan Wesson, STI,etc.. I suspect the rising popularity of 9MM in general is a major reason we're seeing so many 1911s being chambered in the cartridge lately. I enjoy the moderate recoil (even with the most energetic 9MM ammo), flat trajectory, accuracy, and boring reliability of my 9MM 1911s. Reason enough for me to own them. I have other 9MMs, including Hi Powers, but still enjoy the 1911 9MMs.
BTW, My current Dan Wesson and Kimber 9MM 1911s, and the STI I used to own, were not magazine sensitive at all. Any 9MM magazine in any of these 9MM 1911s worked just fine.....
