I have a Ruger 1911, it's a solid, good gun, but frankly, I like my Springfields better.
And why is that?

Either the Springfields shoot better, or I shoot them better, one or the other. The Ruger actually has a better trigger and sights than the Springfield's triggers, too. It shouldn't matter a bit, and the better trigger and sights should make the Ruger the better shooter, but for whatever mystifying reasons, that is not the case. As far as that goes, I've got a couple of Colts that are humbled by the Springers, too. And a couple of RIAs that humble the Springers................
