No argument here
Glocks come in .45 so there is no practical reason to choose a 1911 over one. Not every descision made has to be one of practicality though.

Because a more accurate comparison would be a rotary phone to a dial phone with a cord.

The basic mechanics behind the Glock to the 1911 are identical except for the striker meme.

Also lol. Relating a Glock to a smart phone. They are from the 70's you dingus.
>>
>>33391538
This just in, folks! Apparently ALL technology advances at the same rate over the same amount of time, and the amount that phones have advanced vs the amount that pistols have advanced over the past century are completely parallel to one another.

Unlike the phones, the Glock offers no real functions that a 1911 lacks.

Therefore it's really just preference, and if you shoot like a god with a 1911, don't buy Glocks.

Not only that, but Glock is from the early 1980s. So where's the image of comparing a blocky early-80s brick-phone to a modern cell-phone next to an FNP? Some people forget that the Glock design is somewhere around 35 years old. Anyone who was an adult at the time of the Glock 17 coming out are now preparing for retirement. Think about that.

If capacity is really the argument here, why would anyone have a 45acp gun when every 9mm version of that gun holds more? Why do people go with Glock 17s (17+1) when you can go with a XDM (19+1)?

>didn't mention reliability? wonder why
Because it depends on the specific 1911 in question.
I could post videos of various 1911s beating Glocks in reliability tests.
There's nothing inherent in the designs that makes 1 vastly more reliable than the other.

God, the level of delusion fudds and other traditionalists operate under is staggering. It's rivaled only by Commies.

Reality doesn't care about your romantic fantasies. "Hurr durr real men" is not an argument. Efficiency, pragmatism and adapting your design to the real world instead of forcing the real world to adapt to your design produces results. Blind traditionalism for its own sake only produces friendly casualties.

but there is an argument to be made for traditionalism. militarily, the 1911 is fucking dead as a standard issue weapon. only one action mode, semi-complicated disassembly, hammer-like weight, etc.

but, on the perspective of someone in the gun store, at least to me, there's something right about the 1911. it just works together. don't lie to me, there is some enjoyment in holding a 1911 in your hands. there is absolutely no enjoyment in a glock for most. it's a plastic brick, and it works.

it's a philosophy thing more than anything. do you want a weapon that you need no more than basic training for it to work pretty good all the time, and do what it should, but never really get above that point, or do you want something harder to use, but once you get that fucker down, it can be miles ahead of what other guys have. and this isn't just a firearm philosophy, this applies to cars or jobs or anything in life.

and that's why I choose the 1911.

No. Traditionalism is "we should do this because it's the way people in the past did it", independent of the actual merits of the thing in question. It's a crappy standard for anything.

The rest of this basically amounts to you admitting that the 1911 is nothing more than a fun range toy, which is not an opinion I disagree with, until we get to here

>but never really get above that point, or do you want something harder to use, but once you get that fucker down, it can be miles ahead of what other guys have
This is a bullshit statement with nothing to back it up. I have regularly seen polymer wondernines trounce 1911s in competition. You're attributing the results of practice and shooter skill to the gun.

It's a shitty comparison.

A 1911 is more like an old muscle car. GLAWK is more like a newer Ford Fiesta.

>>
>>33392865

>trying this hard to get a reply

>>33392866
there's also the point to be made that the fact that it's heavier is better because it balances the gun and helps the recoil dissipate because there's just more gun to absorb it.
>>
>>33392767
You said it yourself. Any decent gun will go bang when you pull the trigger, and at the end of the day that's all that matters. Why waste time getting an antiquated design to work for you when a new one will have you performing just as well right out of the box? You won't be any better just because you mastered a more complicated manual of arms, you'll just stop being worse than the person who went with something simpler to begin with. Should you and another train the same amount with different weapons you will always be worse than them because they started ahead of you.

Manual safety.
Ammo capacity is never irrelevant, by the way. Don't make laugh. Double stack 1911s exist though.

>>33392951
If you only spent 5 minutes training to take off the manual safety you're going to die like a bitch when you draw on Jamal who doean't have to do anything but pull out his Glawk Fotay.
>>
>>33392898
I feel like i'm watching two weebs compare katanas.

A 1911 is not more complicated than a modern gun of the same size. They still make 7/8+1 guns that are full sized and slightly heavier than a polymer pistol.

The ONLY advantage modern guns may have over a 1911 is capacity and size being smaller. But not everyone wants a light .45 because then the recoil becomes an issue. And not everyone wants a teeny tiny pistol because for some people, they require a larger gun to be comfy.


I HATE 1911's myself. But wrguing that they are bad, because they are old and only because they are old, is stupid.

Well that's just not true, since 1911 fanboys clearly do understand them.

This does however demonstrate how narrow-minded fudds are. Sure you can figure it out fairly easily. But there's more parts to manufacture, more parts to break, more parts to wear out, etc. Simpler is always better as long as it can accomplish the same objective.

>can't handle 1 pound
Not an argument. Just because you CAN handle something doesn't mean you need to. Example: a man who is strong enough to wield a 6-foot long sword is also strong enough to wield a normal-sized sword much faster and for much longer.

>do you enjoy storing your guns in mud by any chance?
Nah, I just don't treat my guns like safe queens the way you have to treat a 1911.

>>33392891

>>33392975
I don't use either but it's undeniable that you have to put time in to learn how to use a 1911 that simply isn't there with the Glock.

I don't hate them for the sake of hating them. I'm just a small dude. I can't CC one, and if I OC one it is uncomfy as fuck. Then when shooting one, it just feels really awkward in my hands because I have little baby hands.

I bought a Glock 36 as my go to .45. And the only full sized .45 I have ever thought was nice was a USP my dad has. It's bigger than a 1911 of course, but for some reason I liked it. I still would have the same issues carrying one though.

>>33393021
What. You pick up a 1911 and hold it correctly, and it fires. Numerous guns have manual safeties of different kinds. The 1911 is not some sort of complicated space gun. You've never shot one, have you?

>>33393104
Well I'm not a fan of regular glocks either. Same issue you have. They feel almost...I don't know. Like they are top heavy? And like the grip is forcing you to point down slightly. To me at least. The 26/36 glocks are nice though. They are single stacked which makes the grip not feel like ass. And the top is narrowed which makes it feel more balanced.

I had to carry a Glock 19 at my old job and had to shoot a lot with it. I hated every moment of it. It was always just awkward. That is how I guess we can describe full sized/nirmal shaped glocks. Just awkward lol.

come on man, unless you plan on A, buying a 1911 that has no finish on it, or plan on storing your guns in salt water, this is a non issue.

>stupid grip safety
this is basically the glock trigger. it is a passive safety. that is all it does. it's entire purpose is to prevent ADs without impeding the shooter.

>stupid manual safety
this is something that's actually useful for in the safe, if you just wanna be sure. and, the benefit of the manual safety is that it's optional.
nothing's stopping you from keeping a 1911 condition zero, and nothing stops you from keeping it condition one or even up to condition three.

Fuddlore. Most self-defense cases don't even require firing a carry weapon whatsoever; when firing is necessary firing more than 1 round is rare, and never has it actually been necessary to unload 17 rounds.

You're not John Wick, the world is not in a post-apocalyptic shit fit state, and unless you are actively in the military and in combat, Ammo capacity is very much not relevant.

Because unlike those two phones, those two guns do not perform significantly differently.

This is also a strawman analogy, Glocks are not 21st century devices. The only part of them even remotely modern is the polymer frame which is a decades old technology. By this logic we should all be getting gimmicky spaceguns because "hurr dey r newer"

Finish wears off of steel. Polymer can't rust period. Steel provides no practical advantage and has the potential to rust, however slim you think it might be.

>this is basically the glock trigger.
I think the Glock trigger safety is pointless too. It doesn't actually prevent ADs or NDs, really, it's only there to appease the lawyers.

>this is something that's actually useful for in the safe, if you just wanna be sure.
Your irrational paranoia doesn't make something an advantage

>and, the benefit of the manual safety is that it's optional.
nothing's stopping you from keeping a 1911 condition zero, and nothing stops you from keeping it condition one or even up to condition three.
Except, you know, that they regularly snag on clothing and holsters and get accidentally engaged. In which case they're an active liability if you thought you were carrying with the safety off. And in the case of the 1911, they're just not safe to carry cocked without the safety, so it's not optional.

>come on man, make a fucking argument.

>>33393232

I'm not a huge Glock fan, by the way. I don't like the grip angle personally, and I think they're ugly as shit. But I'd take one over an outdated range toy any day.

>>light weight
oh yeah, forgot this fucking point.
a milspec 1911 unloaded is 39 ounces - 2.4lbs (from springfield site)
an empty g21 is 28 ounces - 1.75 pounds

assuming .45acp 230gr ball weighs .7 of an ounce, our 1911 with 8+1 is 45 ounces - 2.8 pounds

our G21 glock carries 13+1 rounds, meaning it is 39 ounces fully loaded. - 2.4 pounds.

2.4 vs 2.8 lbs, or 39 vs 45 oz.

it's not as big of a difference as you make it. it's not an insignificant difference, but it's not a S&W 629 vs a goddamn Ruger MK4.

>Ammo capacity is very much not relevant.

The 1911 is a fucking helluva gun, it's a real gun, a heavy gun, a gun that a man uses, and k is full of children, little children, children who need the newest toys, the cheapest toys, the toys their friends have.

It's too expensive for these children, it's over their allowance. They spend $700 to get a Glock variant, they put the cheapest pieces on it, they spend $1300 to trick their shitty Glock out, to make it look like a real handgun, to make it look like it's something worth having.

To them, the bells and whistles are the gun, the gun is not the gun. They don't want to spend $1400 on a pistol, they want to spend $1400 on accessories, toys for their toys. It's a mans gun with a mans price and needs no toys, it is a tool.
>>
>>33393280
You called a gun that is the same complexity as the gun you are comparing it to, more complex.

A 1911 and a Glock have almost the same guts to them the only difference is the frame material and where the safety is. That's it. However the extra weight is usually a non-issue on a 1911, and the safety on one effectively wirks the exact. Same. Way. As an internal Glock safety.

I can't help but meet you with sarcasm, because you're too autistic to take seriously.

You have obviously never disassembled either gun beyond the most basic field-stripping.

Why would I disassemble my guns further than need be to clean them and keep them shooting? If you want to take a glock apart past "the most basic field stripping" you need tools. I'm not fucking with my $400 gun like that.

>doesn't make it better

Weight helps keep you from having as much recoil. That is a positive. A 1911 has less recoil than my Glock 36. Even I see the value in that, despite hating 1911s.

>hirr durr u stoopid.

The two safeties are different in how they are put together byt they function exactky the same. It keeps you from shooting the gun until your hand is on the gun. You're being pretty defensive bruh. Are you Nutnfancy?

If I wanted a plastic brick to go shooting, the Glock would be about my last choice due to it being overpriced junk championed by sperglords.

I'd buy a Canik for half price of a Gluck, and get a shitton of goodies in the case, too.

I shoot and open carry a 1911 (6k rounds through it, no FTF or FTE) and CC a Ruger LCP II.

>Update: Underwood examined the ammo and found that some of the projectiles (made by Lehigh) were undersized. They were loose in the cases and, when mine chambered, it got pressed down into the case. This caused a serious overpressure incident. Underwood has purchased new laser inspection equipment to verify projectile dimensions so this sort of incident can be avoided in the future.

The choice between a 1911 and a Glock (or any other polymer autopistol) is a tradeoff between:

a gun that will function satisfactorily 99% of the time out of the box but has a short service life and will require part replacement after a few thousand rounds

and

a gun that with functionality that is dependant on the worksmanship and will function many human lifetimes if manufactured properly or will malfunction often and require gunsmithing to bring up to a dependable functioning level

The 1911 is a very thick and solid chasis, the trigger and cocking mechanism is all built into interally into the frame and the tiniest tolerances can throw off the system. If the system is built to proper tolerances it will never be thrown off those tolerances no matter how much abuse the gun takes and will continue to function perfectly forever.

Compared to a polymer frame gun the trigger system is often built into a lightweight and flimsy self contained trigger chassis. These trigger and cocking systems are designed to function in a wide range of tolerances but because all the assemblies are so lightly built they have a life and will wear out and will need to be replaced after a short time.

watch this video on how 1911's are made at Les Baer's shop. By hand fitting a gun you are using human feel to tell if the correct tolerances are achieved and that the gun is not working against stresses that will cause the gun to malfunction
