Like I said, not enough rounds to prove anything but so far so good

but yea... terrible carry gun. I wanted a 1911 carry so bad (just feels good in hand and I shoot much better with them). I think Ill go for a subcompact for the next one.

Yeah, the issues I saw were in competition, so much harder use than the average joe. I'm with you - the 1911 just feels right. Everything Browning designed does. My Hi-Power feels great too. And my 1911 will make a 1" group at 50 yards from a rest. But there's just no way to conceal it. As wrong as the Glock grip angle feels to me, it just works. The M&P feels like the designer took a Glock and molded it to fit a human hand. And it tucks away nicely, even with a light and laser.

But for the vast majority of the time I carry, it's been a .357 snubbie. You could conceal one of those while naked.
