I narrowed down my first 1911 between two... I think...

I know right. I just bought a G36, so I have to chill for a while.

Jennings, hi-point, cough*taurus*cough... all arguable junk. All still being made.
Just because it has a high price tag doesn't mean it is a good product.

Maybe I wouldn't agree totally that everything Kimber makes is junk, but they definitely produce more than their fair share of it. (while working for a LGS a few years ago, we had 4 times as many Kimbers being sent back to the factory than Springfield, Colts, and Sig's. And no, we didn't sell 4 times as many kimber's, so that isn't a valid defense either).

I have a Taurus PT945.... never had a single issue with it. To each his own I guess. Many say Kel-Tec is junk... then again... never a single issue with my P3AT.

Amen, brother.

P.S. Kimber sucks
