Any one old enough to remember the last recall on a 1911 ?   ;D

Give it time, now that Ruger is in the 1911 business it's inevitable. They seem to recall everything.  ;D

That isn't a recall, they are pushing that as a improvement.
People are to stupid to figure out it's not the same as only running high test gas in your Mazarati.

The Kimber Solo isn't a 1911. The slide stop looks the same but other than that they don't have a lot in common.

And yet to a Glock guy they are close enough for mockery. ;)

Glock uses the JMB designed tilting barrel short recoil system. But that's not close enough for a 1911 guy.  :P

I can see a real JMB collector would want that.

I tend to think the Glock is what JMB would have designed if he had the technology available back then.

They both go bang when you pull the trigger, that's close enough for this "1911 guy"  ;D

You're probably not far off the mark, although to meet US Army specs he would have added a thumb safety as an after thought.
