Totally agree. Although I am talking AR-15, but really same design. What a pig to clean, but worth it. So much fun.

A long story on how I got to this point, but finally got to the range.

Fun, fun, fun.

You can get a sense for why the 1911 is such an enduring design. Crisp trigger, good accuracy, feels good in the hand. Not to mention, looks good.
