Ohh boy. I went hands on with a P210 Target today.
The slide feels like it is on ball bearings the trigger was impeccable.
My only slight gripe is that I think I would like a little bit smaller grip.
It’s about $1k cheaper than the Wilson. Hmmmmmmm.

^^^ Get the G10 grips from Armory Craft or the Hogue grips.

Yep. There's no point in getting a single stack gun that has the grip of a fat double stack like a P226 or 92fs.

I've been a fan of 1911's since I shot my first one in Marine boot camp in 1966. And a fan of Wilson 1911's especially, since I got my 2002 build CQB. So when the Wilson X-9 came out, I decided that I needed one.

When a local gun shop got a couple in, I was there the next day with the cash in hand. Beautiful gun. Usual Wilson quality, and I loved the feel of it, but the more I handled it, the more I realised that it wouldn't do anything my M11-A1 or three 226's won't do just as well, or better. I must be getting old!

So with tears in my eyes, I rode off into the sunset, without the X-9. I still love my 1911's. I have four, with the Wilson CQB being the favorite, but they're all .45 ACP. The way they're supposed to be.
