1911 magazines the work and aren’t too pricey
I own several firearms but the ones I like tend to be the ones I actually shoot the least. I love all of my 1911s but retired most of them from use because of one thing, I do not like manual safeties on firearms. I find it kind of ironic that retention holsters are now so popular and basically put a manual safety on your gun, but the mindset is a little different. Considering the number of Special Ops that have gone back to the 45acp says something but I am still not a huge fan of the 1911 for concealed carry. I think there is a difference between pulling a firearm from a duty holster and carrying a firearm that is concealment and then disengaging a manual safety.
The more steps and object you put in front of a process the more your margins of error are going to go up. If you train you can always improve your ability to effectively deploy a firearm, but that’s not what I would spend time on and just carry a different firearm. Chip McCormick magazines are about $10 less expensive than Wilson Combat Magazines and have more of a GI feel to them. I personally prefer to use 8rd magazines and do not have issues with them. I also prefer flush fitting magazines but I realize that not everyone just CCW the guns and might want a larger base pad for competition shooting.
