Just because the fbi thinks something like the 9 mm is better does nothing for me. Bigger is always better. I often carry a 9mm Due to size but if I knew I was going to be in a fight , my 1911 would be my choice. 20 years of uspsa competition is responsible for that. I do carry a 1911 when I can conceal it ok.
I too, much prefer the M1911 in .45 ACP. At one time the FBI went to a 10 MM for more penetration. Then they found out a lot of their agents could not handle it, so back to the 9 MM.
