The 1911 is a great gun, to say different would be a lie. Is it the do all end all gun for everyone, no... No gun is. What pistol does the guys who protect the President carry....one clue..it's not a Glock...:tu: ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- A quick Google provided this....do not know how accurate it is & it's a little over a year old..now it does not prove anything more than gee whiz factor..and I know a couple guys on different PD's who carry 1911's but they are not on the list (and they are Western states) any my local SO is not on the list & they can carry the 1911.... List of 362 Agencies that allow 1911 carry List of 362 Agencies that allow 1911 carry 1of2 - 1911Forum ---AutoMerged DoublePost---

I don't hate the tupperware gun {GLOCK}, I just like the safer more accurate & better looking gun in the 1911:jump:

I have SIG, GLOCK, H&K, WALTHER, BROWNING, BERETTA, CZ, but nothing is as good as the 1911. :humm:

I'd be willing to bet that the secret service carries whatever the hell they feel like for a given day?

Secret Service standard issue is/was either the Sig P229 in 357 SIG or the FN Five-Seven in (obviously) 5.7x28.
As with nearly every other high level military/LE division, I would imagine a few agents probably have been tested and cleared to pack a 1911 variant, as well as other weapons....the exception, not the rule. |
