Infortmation regarding different manufacturers

[A_Fletcher]

I'm interested in one of these 1911's, however I have never done anything with a 1911 but handle one in a gun shop. This gun will be my all purpose pistol. CCW/HD/SHTF in other words.

The first one is a S&W SW1911. Any problems that seem to run true from pistol to pistol? If you had to pick, would you get a scandium frame or a stainless steel frame?

The second one is a SA Loaded. Again, any problems with them? Any problems feeding SD ammo?

I have a Loaded and it's a nice gun. The chamber seems to run a little tighter than my Colts I have and had but the gun runs good. QA is above average IMO and is built well.

When building reloads, I have to run them a little tighter on OD so as to feed good. Never an issue with any factory load. I'm very happy with mine.
