FTF first mag in the 1911 😂 now thats perfection!
Love how they always compare to the 1911
My favorite and preferred semi-automatic pistol is the 1911. The plain GI .45 version (mine is Springfield Armory). Had it for 18 years. My goal has always been to do more with less. No bells, whistles, rails, lights, camo, cerakote, etc. GI 7 round magazines. 75% of the time, I shoot one hand and more recently shoot using the Rex Applegate point shooting method which works surprisingly well.
Oddly enough, in recent years, I do not feel the .45 ACP recoil anymore with 230 gr ball 850-900 fps (unless I shoot Hornandy +P, which is certainly manageable).
Come on brother at least upgrade to Willson combat mags 8rd and 10rd.please
@@TheRealZJE313 actually I did get an 8 round stainless SA mag for grins about 15 years ago. Problem is, it wouldn’t last long before the spring got weak. I put a 7 round follower in it and made it a 7 rounder.
I know Wilson is top notch 8 rounders, but honestly, these factory 7 rounders do fine and they look more historical.
@@classicgunstoday1972 o ok.well that's al I run in my 1911s Wilson combat 8rd and 10rd. I just throw the factory mags and the draw I have full with Factory magazines
Two guys having fun, safely shooting. Great video!
Is Justin's Glock still considered a Glock or does it identify as something else now?
Glock, the best $300 gun you can buy for $600.
High thumb on the slide of a 1911 is a failure to feed waiting to happen.
I love the 1911, but I wouldn't carry one due to the capacity limitation. That's why all of my carry pistols over the past 3 years have been 2011s. A capacity of 15 or more rounds of 9mm, great ergonomics, and that always wonderful trigger. I have no desire to have a plastic striker fired pistol.
As long as they’re both .45, I don’t see the issue. I have a 1911 and G21
Have a competition for all employees to see who’s the best at the shop! Winner gets a paid day off.
I'm betting you're an employee who works in accuracy quality control
You tell em!
As a owner of 2 Wilson Combats, 1 Ed Brown, 1 Les Baer, and 2 Springfield 1911s, I'm a fan, I though my Beretta 92 felt about the same as my full size M&p 9mm, then I picked up a 226 and it feels better than all of them!
Yeah I like my Sig Sauer P226R compared to glocks that I've tried. I still like the 1911 platform thou.
@@dreamcycle4937 I call BS on the custom 1911s failing every time you have a raange day. I own Ed Browns and Wilson Combats. They are among the most reliable pistols in the world.
@@dreamcycle4937 Well your experience is odd. I’ve been shooting competitions and off n on carrying a gun professionally for 5 decades now. I’ve seen Glocks fail with great regularity. My custom 1911s have NEVER failed through many, many thousands of rounds. I believe most people who have 1911 failures are inexperienced and are inducing failure in one way or another. I do believe the 1911 is an expert’s pistol. I mean, LAPD beat cops carry all your wonder nines. LAPD SWAT carry 1911s. I guess the guys most likely to employ their pistol have a death wish? Whatever, sir. But you are just wrong.
@@dreamcycle4937 🤣😂 Mmmmkay. Well since you don't care for my elitist professional experience attitude, I won't bore you with it.🤣🙄And I won't confuse you with facts since your child's mind is already made up. G'day sir.
@@dreamcycle4937 Apologies right back at ya, sir. This keyboard stuff is weird. If we were in person, we’d have a beer and laugh about our different preferences and experiences. Have a good day. A good week. And a good year. Carpe Diem.
I have shot in many contests and the guys with 1911's have malfunctions and the guys with Glocks zero malfunctions. Go with Glock!
I've only had 1 failure to feed with my 1911 due to a burr on the case mouth. Other than that it's almost a tack driver. My Gen 5 G19 has trouble keeping in the 9 ring.
That's interesting! It's usually the opposite.
I have both. They both have their features and uses.
Exactly
Is it common practice to load a full mag, rack the slide and then press check it? Or is it just for show? I load mine and rack it. No press checking...
Love both pistols equally
Let me don my fireproof suit.
Love my Defender 1911.
Love my Canick MC9.
What do I carry every day?
A SCCY CPX2.
Always fires, never jams and it point shoots extremely well. The sights are very easy to acquire and get on target fast.
The MCARBO spring kit made this gun so easy to shoot accurately.
Flame on!
Both platforms work well. Get to know the tool you choose
I like real life comparisons. Get to see how they perform and the pros and cons.
Appreciate it!
2 nice pieces
I'm more of a 1911 guy. appreciate the history and craftsmanship
I'd like to see the Beretta boy leader v 226 v cz
Nothing beats the trigger in a good 1911.
Both are great in the right hands. I personally had a weird "malfunction" with a glock 43x. I would reset the trigger and not pinning it either and it felt like the slide wasnt fully going into battery. Same day i rented a 1911 and shot the 1911 way better than both the glock 21sf and the glock 43x. Not knocking glocks but they just arent for me.
My favorite is 1911s.
They’re both just good
My 1911 and G-17 are both excellent guns. But if your half asleep or pretty drunk, choose the Glock. Much easier to use and has over twice the capacity.
I been starting to collect 1911s recently, and I would be fine using one for carry. But my nightstand gun is my 19X
Thanks guys for your efforts. Talking shit about guns is my thing too. Lol
Great content and fun to watch
Stealth arms platypus. 1911 with glock mags. My favorite at the moment.
So you guys normally show up at the range with plates and battle belts? To a square range?😂😂😂
Always been a fan of 1911.
My gf who has arthritis in her hands runs a 1911 because it doesn't hurt her hands like a G19 (especially with +P) does.
Me with my tendinitis, I can't run any polymer 9mms because it just sucks to shoot after a magazine. 1911s, I can drop hundreds of rounds no problem.
Why? Because the impulse isn't a sharp torque upwards that a 9mm provides. The .45 is a slow firm push rearwards at a far lower chamber pressure.
FT3 is my favorite indoor range in the O.C.!
Useful differences between the pistols
I have a Garrison 1911, Glock 48, and S&W M&P 9.
So 3 different sized guns.
1911 with safetys.
G48 has ease of concealment.
M&P9 has a rail.
I cant stand all black guns so the M&P9 is my least fav. The G48 fits in my hand perfectly. But the 1911 is gorgeous and makes the most beautiful sounds with every function.
Great comparison! Love the video.
Awesome supplies and customer service
Everybody likes a showdown!
Nice comparison
Plastic is for toys
Grown up Toys!
Smooth brain comment, no way it was made by an actual ranger.
@@Osprey1994 LMAO
as the old south east asia Vet's ( the nam to those that were their) used to say about the hand rails of the
myke 1'six ( m-16' ) you can tell it's swell if it's made by metel
@@sonnysantana5454Swell by Mattel, the toy co.
I've watched a lot of videos of people shooting various types of guns. They all can go Bang Bang Bang really fast so no difference there. For the most part they seem completely equal. The only thing I've noticed is if a person is shooting a 1911 they go Bang clank Bang clank Bang clank Bang clank... In the videos of people shooting Glocks what they typically do is go Bang Bang Bang clank Bang Bang clank Bang clank Bang Bang. The Glock is maybe just as fast as the 1911 for most people. When youtube influencers are making videos that is what is important, they usually only video themselves shooting the gun they never show the target. If hitting the target becomes a factor, which it typically isn't for youtube influencers, then the Glock seems to fall way behind.
Later in the video you bring up a good point- the influencers will probably start shooting .22LR so they don't have to deal with recoil.
Would be nice to see
Cz P01 vs Sig P229
Two things the Glock dose better then most other gun designs is. 1. Shoot when you pull the trigger and 2. Not shoot when you don't pull the trigger. Just my personal observation.
A very good enactment of pro & cons of each pistol.
I’ve been partial to the 1911 since I was issued my first one as a 2ndLt
Thank you for your service!
1911!
What's with the silly press check after each mag load? Is that what they're teaching now at tacticool school these days? 😂
Good choices
Love my Wilson Combat x tac elite compact.
Their answer will rage on forever, everybody has their opinion as to which best.
Need both
Yes you do!
great compare
They both have their Place!
Both pistols are two different systems. The 1911 is the old school heavy one hitter quitter. The Glock is a light weight grip it and rip it. The 1911 is for experienced shooters who know the system with it's 2 safeties and single action. Either way one has to know what their doing with both.
Tisas 1911a1 US Army repro with red dot. It's bulky and not EDC, but hey...I live in a Free State and I can if I want to. Note: ditch the mag and get a Wilson Combat Mag. You're welcome. Glock 21 or 41 isn't any better for EDC, but hey... They run fluid and less steps for deductions.
I gotta check out that range!!
Nice gunmanship.
We need training like that here.
Good times comparing guns at the range
Will always go with 1911 first choice
Depends on who's runnin it!
What you new shooters don't realize is that when you extend your magazine you mess up the reliability of the firearm, it's sometimes a hit or miss kind of thing.
love to watch the shooting
Nice!
Both excellent for different circumstances
This argument is as old as day shift vrs night shift. LOL. I have been a 9mm guy for years but the 1911 has grown on me.
Good video. Some humor mixed with some excellent shooting.
You should hear them off camera!
good thought provoking video
i like both pistols... i own serveral 1911's and glock's 17, 19, 20 and 21's
From my perspective, this is a nearly impossible call. Both are excellent firearms. However, would probably lean towards 1911 from its American heritage and its military history. 👍🏻🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸
2 world wars! #ftw
The banter was hilarious
FT3 is my go to range!!
I like how it was broken down love it guys
When I saw ft3 my brain just kept thinking "cubic"
Got to head to the range now.
Meet me there!
Love the showdown!
Both great pistols , comes down to preference I like the 1911 but I’m not against the Glock
Every pistol has it's benefits - I still carry a Glock today!
Well I prefer metal framed pistols if I had to carry and it restricted state I probably carry a polymer
Can’t go wrong with either
This is like “what’s better…2005 Toyota Camry or 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28?”
love it how you guys are hating on each other. lol
What 1911 were you using?
Thanks guys that was much better than I thought. Lol
I like both pistols
I love both.
Omg how can this even be a thing. 1911’s 2011’s rule.
What do u think about the kimber custom LW series. With aluminum frames. And steel slides.
Love both
can't go wrong
Gluck fan boys make my stomach turn. Give me a 1911 any day of the week.
I really hate these "Ford vs. Chevy" type comparison videos. It's ALL OPINIONS! And just like butt holes, everyone has one.
Strongly worded opinions!
GET IT BOYS!
I need to get to the range
I wish I had a nice indoor range in my town.
Indoor ranges are nice! But outdoor ranges are just the best!
I know they had a lot of fun shooting for this video.
It's all subjective. I have a couple guns I love, but my buddy absolutely hates to even hold.
Need a 1911
Pros and cons with each
#truth
Young people who like plastic guns in plastic holsters will never appreciate a man's gun made out of metal and wood and carried in a animal skin holster that can be passed down to your grandchildren.
Beretta px4 interested in that one next
This was actually being discussed in office today!
