Everytime someone like you tells me I should quit smoking, especially when I am already smoking one, I light another one up just to spite you.  It was the smokers choice to start, it was the smokers choice to continue, it is the smokers choice to get whatever he or she has coming to them as a result of smoking and we don't need to hear lip from you and all the other anti-smoking arseholes about why we should quit.  I like my cigerettes, they keep me calm, give me an excuse to go outside at work, and I've met most of my friends at smoke pits.  I hope I do die young from smoking too, becuase I have no intentions or desire to spend the last 20 years of my life in a nursing home making paper machet snowmen and being treated like a 5 year old by people my generation raised.  I would much rather die at 50 of a heart attack or massive lung cancer cloggage.

Ummm wow, you guys really do no research on firearms anyway, I'll give you a break.  Yes it does have to do with the smaller caliber but it has more to do with standard 1911 MAGAZINES being single stack and standard Beretta 92 series MAGAZINES being double stack.  In a single stack, each round is stacked directly on top of another staggered vertically slightly due to most semi-automatic handguns using rimmed cartridges (or semi-rimmed).  In a double stack the rounds or cartridges (not bullets) are stacked staggered vertically and horizontally to allow more rounds in the same amount of vertical space in a magazine.  Double stack magazines are obviously wider, the one on the left is a double stack, I bet you guys coulda guessed that.
https://www.berettaweb.com/Beretta%2080/Beretta-80-bi-mono.gif
and they do make double stack magazines for 1911's.
(Usually in the 10 rd range or 12 round for HK USP .45's.  Thought I'd help.

Single Stack:

Note the vertical staggering

Double Stack:( ON THE LEFT)
https://www.berettaweb.com/Beretta%2080/Beretta-80-ser-car.gif
Note how the magazine slopes inward at the top near where the feed ramp is, because it has to slim down to a "single stack" size for proper feeding.

The 9mm round is more compact that a .45 ACP. The 1911 uses a strait feed ( Single stack ) mag where the M-9 uses a staggered feed ( double stack ) mag. This increases the width of the grip but allows for more ammo storage. The 1911 was replaced by the M-9 officially for the higher ammo cap 15rds M-9, 7rds 1911, and the NATO  compatibility of the 9x19 parabellum round, unofficially the 1911 was taken out of service due to the amount of female solders who could not qualify with the heavy recoil of the 1911. As for the size of the M-9, its not a tiny handgun. the barrel is 4.92 inches long and overall length of 8.54 inches. The M-9 weight is a hefty 2.1 lbs unloaded., by no means a "tiny" gun.

Looks like your not the only gun enthusiast that responded.  As for the XD, it has more time to come up with something better than the ever aging Beretta system of the 80's.

the basic design of the 1911 is hard core though, and has been ripped off and copied many times over, it's been pretty much the top handgun for 100 years, and still has a while to go yet

For some reason they don't publicize it much, but the UN is trying to ban gun ownership worldwide, thankfully John Bolton is standing firm for America, they can't stop fighting with each other long enough to get anything accomplished anyway. From my NRA newsletter (I joined right after watchin "Bowling for Columbine, and following along on the web with the list of half truths, doctored footage, and outright lies, Charleton thanks you for my membership, Michael Moore)





NRA-ILA Grassroots Alert Vol. 13, No. 28 0714/06

States with updates this issue:  Alabama, California, Georgia, Kansas, and Michigan.


INTERNATIONAL GUN BANNERS DEALT BLOW--FOR NOW!

The  "U.N. Conference to Review Progress Made in the Implementation of the Programme of Action to Prevent and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects" ended last Friday in deadlock with no formal conclusions or recommendations.  In the final analysis, the complexity of the issue and the concerns of hunters, sport shooters and firearm owners worldwide prevailed.  No recommendations on ammunition, civilian possession or future U.N. meetings, or for that matter, any other subjects, were adopted.  The failure of this five-year program to impact the legitimate firearm industry, and the Second Amendment rights of U.S. citizens was total.  Anti-gun Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and liberal governments served notice they would not give up and would present all of their issues to the U.N. General Assembly this fall.

Thanks should be given to NRA Board members Bob Barr, David Keene, and Jim Gilmore for their crucial participation in this significant victory.


U.S. SENATE VOTES TO PROTECT SECOND
AMENDMENT RIGHTS DURING EMERGENCIES

On July 13, the U. S. Senate overwhelmingly passed (84-16) an amendment to the Homeland Security appropriations bill (H.R. 5441).  This amendment, offered by Senator David Vitter (R-La.), prohibits the use of funds appropriated under H.R. 5441 for the confiscation of lawfully possessed firearms during an emergency or major disaster. 

Commenting on the passage of the amendment, NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox said, "After Hurricane Katrina, the New Orleans Police Superintendent issued orders to confiscate firearms from all citizens, allegedly under a state emergency powers law.  With that one order, he stripped the one means of self-protection innocent citizens had during a time of widespread civil disorder.  This legislation guarantees that will never happen again."

Various reports indicate that law enforcement agencies from the federal government and several states confiscated guns from law-abiding New Orleans residents.  The Vitter Amendment prohibits the use of federal funds to seize firearms or restrict firearms possession, except in the circumstances allowed by current federal or state law.  Convicted felons and other "prohibited persons" are not protected under this legislation and it does not affect law enforcement operations outside of disaster relief situations.

"In passing this legislation, the U.S. Senate acted to protect the self-defense rights of citizens when those rights are most vital.  There was no 9-1-1 or police to rely on while looters and rapists and thugs ran rampant and honest citizens were left to their own devices to protect themselves, their families and their neighbors.  I want to thank Senator Vitter for introducing this amendment and all the Senators who supported it," concluded Cox.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the resulting gun confiscations, NRA filed suit in federal court and won a temporary restraining order ending the illegal gun confiscations.  After the City of New Orleans failed to comply with the court's ruling, NRA filed a motion of contempt that included an order that all seized firearms be returned to their rightful owners. 

Due to NRA's efforts, emergency powers legislation prohibiting government officials from restricting the rights of law-abiding gun owners during declared states of emergency has passed this year in Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, South Carolina, Virginia, Alaska, Idaho, Kentucky, New Hampshire, and Oklahoma.

While the passage of the Vitter Amendment in the U.S. Senate represents an important victory for America's law-abiding gun owners, the job is not yet finished.  It is vital that this provision be included in the final version of the bill that emerges from the House and Senate Conference Committee later this year.

DI FI TAKES ONE ON THE CHIN

During a mark-up of the Commerce, Justice, State Appropriations Bill, the Senate Appropriations Committee rejected, on a voice vote, an amendment by notoriously anti-gun Senator Diane Feinstein (D-Cal.).  Feinstein's amendment sought to gut the NRA-supported Tiahrt Amendment that protects the public disclosure of firearm trace data. 

The Tiahrt Amendment prohibits the release of firearm trace data to any entity except a law enforcement agency conducting a bona fide criminal investigation involving the firearm.  This language is critically important in ensuring politically motivated lawsuits (such as those being promoted by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg) don't misuse this data to try and bankrupt the lawful firearm industry through reckless litigation.  Additionally, as NRA and numerous law enforcement officers and agencies have continuously pointed out, release of this information also jeopardizes ongoing criminal investigations and the lives of law enforcement personnel involved with them.   

Had Senator Feinstein's amendment succeeded and ultimately passed into law, sensitive trace data could be abused by those who seek to erode our Second Amendment rights and undermine the efforts of the law enforcement community to arrest, prosecute, and punish criminals involved in illegal firearms activities.


GOVERNOR BUSH NOTES CORRELATION BETWEEN
ARMED, LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS AND FLORIDA'S LOWER CRIME RATE

When queried this week about his state's declining crime rate, Florida Governor Jeb Bush (R) told reporters from the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel, "Law abiding citizens that have guns for protection actually probably are part of the reason we have a lower crime rate."

Florida is one of 40 states with Right-to-Carry statutes that allow their law-abiding citizens to carry a concealed firearm for self-defense.  In addition, the state last year passed NRA-backed "Castle Doctrine" legislation that allows citizens to "stand their ground" and defend themselves against an attacker in a place where they have a legal right to be.

Florida's crime rate dropped for the 14th straight year and the crime rate is currently at its lowest level since 1971.


WASHINGTON, D.C., ONCE AGAIN
GRAPHICALLY ILLUSTRATES THE FAILURE OF GUN CONTROL

Washington, D.C.'s ban on handguns and on using guns for protection at home exists throughout the entire city.  Now, so does the fear of violent crime.  In the American city with the most restrictive "gun control" laws, a "crime emergency" has been declared, following 13 murders in only 11 days, as well as a spike in robberies and assaults.  D.C.'s police chief, Charles Ramsey, issued the declaration on July 11, the third time he has done so in the last four years.

"It used to be almost 80 percent of criminals, if not higher, were arrested in areas near where they live," Chief Ramsey said. "Now we're starting to see a trend where more and more people are being arrested in places they do not live in."  In a recent, highly publicized crime of this type, a British man had his throat cut and his woman companion was nearly raped in D.C.'s affluent, trendy, and usually peaceful Georgetown neighborhood.  The main suspects in the murder, both from other neighborhoods, have criminal records, one for armed robbery and a drug charge, the other for drug offense and probation violation, and both are suspected of committing at least two robberies in Georgetown in recent weeks.  Even the Washington Mall, a popular location for people touring the city's historic landmarks, has been plagued by crime recently.  After a rash of robberies in May, a new string of robberies has begun around the Washington Monument.

D.C.'s delegate to Congress, Eleanor Holmes-Norton (D), has called for increased patrols in the Mall area.  But we won't hold our breath waiting for her to join NRA in calling for repeal of the city's anti-gun, anti-self-defense laws.  Holmes-Norton is one of the chief obstructionists to that long overdue reform.

Please be sure to contact your U.S. Senators and Representative and ask them to cosponsor and support S. 1082 and H.R. 1288-- the Senate and House versions of the "District of Columbia Personal Protection Act"-- and restore the constitutionally-guaranteed Second Amendment rights of the residents of the District of Columbia.  You can call your U.S. Senators at (202) 224-3121, or your U.S. Representative at (202) 225-3121.

sometimes they lower the center of gravity a little bit, I use a cup and saucer grip so I have to make minor adjustments, but it doesn't bother me that much, not that I notice, I'm way out of practice, haven't fired a pistol in years, been playing with rifles too much, I want a berreta .40, but all the cops around here snatch them up too fast


edit: cup and saucer as right handed

your right hand is the "coffee cup"
you support it with your left like a "saucer"

sort of forces you to make adjustments to your stance for better sighting and accuracy, as when you move the gun past the point of being able to hold it with both hands, you are in a fairly unnatural posture, and it can affect your stability, when my parents competed they tended to use this most, except when the rules specifically called for a side stance with a single handed grip (your non-gun arm behind your back to prevent you from using it out of habit)
