Alright, so I have been researching for a while, and I know this is the ford/dodge/chevy discussion of 1911s...
But I have a different question... all the threads I have found everywhere are people comparing them in relability/durability...
I'm looking at a comparison in accuracy.
I know that in the end the biggest factor is practice and shooter skill... but assuming that these were taken out of the picture how do these two pistol measure up to eachother.
Reason I picked these models is because... in addition to being a primarily target 1911(I really want a 1911) I will use it for home defense/camping when we go out in the middle of nowhere.. and I want the rail for a light... For a lil extra $$$ I want the rail so it can take the place of a poylmer gun as I don't want to spend $$$ on a gun specifically for defense... just can't justify it.
So this gun will be target shooting in addition to sitting in the nightstand/camping bag... no carrying... stupid IL... but as far as aspects of the gun I am looking at it from a target perspective not tactical/defense... As far as budget, the MC operator is basically as much as I want to dish out... maybe a few extra $ if I find something good.. but something in that price range.
Let me know what you guys think... my bud has a kimber custom II TLE and I like it a lot, I like the feel of the MC Operator and everything but haven't shot it yet.
