of reliability. I find that the 1911 has better ergonomics(for me). Also I have found that people shoot them better one handed than the newer striker fired options. I have several friends that define the word Glockophile. Yet each of them will admit to shooting a 1911 better overall one handed, strong or week hand. It seems to be to be more of a natural pointer. Kinda like an 1860 Colt, bring it up and its there. And being that its single action on the trigger doesnt hurt either. Less trigger travel.
