I only have one; a Springfield armoury 1911 in .38 Super....I got a great deal on it (I'm assuming that no one wanted it because of the chambering). I'm not sure why the .38 Super isn't more popular (well, I kinda know 'why'...the whole 'headspaces on the rim' thingy); my .38 Super is quite accurate with both factory and handloads using cast & jacketed bullets. I think it is more practical than the .357 SIG, and has been around a lot longer. I'm quite happy with it, and use it frequently as a CCW gun loaded with Winchesters Silvertip ammo.
I don't know what a 'rail gun' is, although I have some idea (some kind of competition or 'race' gun?), and I have a question for all the 1911 afficianados here on hunt chat. I have always admired the Colt "Combat Commander" 1911....but does a barrel that is 3/4 of an inch shorter & a rounded hammer really make it that much better as a carry gun? I have to wonder (esp about the hammer, if you carry cocked and locked).
