    There's something to be said for "shoot what you carry and carry what you shoot", and I think that is especially true for Kahrs, Glocks, Rugers, and 1911's. Each have distinctly different trigger feels. I bought the Kahr 380 as a backup over the Ruger for the simple reason the trigger feel is much closer to my normal K40 carry. Not that the LCP is not a decent little pocket pistol, it is indeed. But the trigger is different, and mixing them in carry applications just doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

    BTW, I just cast my VOTE for getting the 1911 only.
    I know your motivation all too well.

    Good point about the trigger. The LCP trigger is long and not what I would call smooth.

    So far it's 14-8 in favor of 1911 only. I'm still processing data, and there have been some extremely thoughtful responses on both sides of this fence I'm sitting on.

    Something about the American classic II that speaks to me. MILSPEC, all chrome available, dovetailed sights, very good reviews, and great entry price that leaves cash for other things. Might be a good way to test out the 1911 waters without spending an arm and a leg. I'm close to hitting the "buy now" button.
    I've lost my memory, and I can't remember where I put it.
