What's wrong with Glocks?

[Slim-Zippy]

I have both a 1911 and a Glock 27. The1911 is what I learned with many years ago and is very familiar and what I carry the most. Both shoot better than I do. I would never carry a Glock without a holster. Yes Glocks are ugly and 1911 take more maintenance. If I go to the beach and think I might get wet or if I will be in a particulary active or dirty enviroment I carry the Glock. My Glock appears to be dishwasher safe, but my 1911 takes a little more effort and time to field strip it and clean.

1911 is a vestige of a time gone by that was more civil and elegant, when people acted with some sense of moral values and courtesy for each other. To me a 1911 is a well fuctioning classy neccessity that I enjoy carrying. It also reminds me to act like a citizen and be proud of my country where I can carry a defensive weapon. of course this is just my opinion of why I and others carry the 1911.
