So many seem to be lacking reading comprehension. I didn't ask "What do you want to see" or what do you "hope" will be the next service pistol. I asked what do you think WILL BE the next service pistol.
Some got it right, but several just read my post the way they wanted it to read.
I think they will come to their senses and go with a 1911 in 45. It worked well for them for about 75 years and despite the claims to the contrary it is one of if not the best made today
JWP,
As much as I love the beautiful chunk of steel that is the 1911, there are logistical issues with fielding them. I would be quite surprised if we saw a mass re-issue of the 1911.
As someone pointed out, what is needed is emphasis on pistol skills, service wide. At least that is my conclusion from my observations.
I know I could use some more range time.
