re: What is the very best semi-auto pistol you've ever owned
1911
It served the U.S. Military for about 75 years and they're considering going back to it (plus, the Army Special Forces and the Navy SEALs never quit using it).
If you've ever watched IPSC or other pistol competition, the 1911 totally dominates.
You can have it in .45 ACP, .40 S&W, .38 Super, 9x19, 45-38 Clarke, and who knows what else.
Personally, I've fired Ruger, S&W, Glock, and SIG pistols.. DA and DAO flavors. Some folks may find otherwise, but as far as I'm concerned, none of them measured up to the 1911.
What else is there to say?
