A S&W 1911PD. As she's still a virgin, protection is provided by my trusty 226:

Nice gun and I'm sure you'll have fun with it. I just can't get used to a rail on a 1911 though. For me, it ruins the classic lines. Sort of like putting a brush guard on a Corvette.

Can you carry that beauty for work? She sure is pretty...

Let's see, I think he is the Chief, so he could write himself a permission slip, if he requires written permission <g> Maybe it is more complex, but if Chief Dolan wanted to carry a 1911 would someone tell him he could not? Wait, that is gun fearing Minneapolis, they might be upset the chief is armed with a cocked and locked 45ACP, poor example

Nice. A 1911 with a tactical twist.

Great S&W. You found a real winner there.

I have a The Slide already made for that one ;)

I might be persuaded for an IWB (LH) rig...maybe.
