As a fellow 1911 owner, I'll give you a heads-up: John Moses Browning designed this pistol to be carried in Condition 1 Safe (round chambered, hammer back, slidelock safety engaged). I know you said you like Glocks, and while I'll admit that they're difficult to render nonfunctional and shoot great, I prefer something steel-framed. Because if I run out of ammo, and need to utilize the pistol as a 'blunt force trauma' weapon, I gotta know the thing will survive it

Regarding that butter smooth slide... Anyone who has ever shot/owned a 1911 can see how buttery smooth it is just by watching you rack the slide. Looks great!
The 1911 is my all-time favorite gun. I wanted one since I was a teenager but went through some very challenging times for most of my adult life financial-wise. But about 2 years ago things got a lot better for my family and I was finally able to afford one. It's all I ever dreamed it would be. I am so thankful for the opportunity to own such an iconic gun.

My favourite 45 ACP is the Smith & Wesson E series stainless steel with amazing wood grips.She shoots extremely well and looks great.
Some of my best memories are being on the range with my dad. To be able to make a living doing that is amazing!! What a great thing to be able to share.
Been messing with 1911's since 1983, as a M60 tank crewman, it was my sidearm. Bought a Colt M1991A1 in 97 when I got my carry permit and I still have it, but I carry a Glock 19 as a duty weapon. Not even Glock can come close to the trigger on a 1911. I never failed to qualify expert with a 1911. (But I've never failed getting 100% with my Glock either)😎 Yes Sir, definitely one of the best handguns ever made. Thanks for your videos, and I'm thankful God let you stay here a little longer!
The action on that slide is amazing, but if you want to eliminate that muzzle flip, replace the guide rod with a tungsten steel guide rod and heavier recoil spring. And if it is indeed your pleasure sir, compensate her.

I don't want to be taken wrong here, and I don't know if sarcasm is involved here, so I don't know if this is normal or a brag... but at 10 yards I can put a full magazine in a dime, even my bow is a nickle group at 10 yards. In the Infantry only about 5 of us hit expert, but chalked it up to not everyone can shoot 300m. Before the military I had a Crossman 760 pump BB rifle, fired a .22 target pistol and a .22 jr rifle of some sort. I really am not a regular shooter, but have done some since the military, now you hopefully see why I can't tell if this was true praise or not.
In all seriousness my favorite is my first, it’s a para ordinance .45, I bought it used and it was dirty! I personally have put over 2k rounds of target ammo and cleaned it twice, once just because I wanted to tear it down to see how it operates, second just cause, I was broke and got a heck of a deal when I bought it, I’ve fired many others, I guess I’m biased a little. I also love my colt, but the first 1911 still remains completely accurate and faithful
I picked up a used Colt government 1911 a few years ago for $1500 because it most closely resembled the one I carried as an MP at Quantico in the 80s. Turns out it was made in 1917....over 100 years old and shoots accurate and smooth as butter
*Local grocery store* Employee: Oh no, Scott is coming! Hide the eggplants! HIDE THE EGGPLANTS!
My favorite 1911 is the RIA M1911 A1 .45ACP I bought a few months ago. My first 1911 and first .45ACP. It’s not as pretty as yours Scott, and the slide is more like a thick jam than butter, but it happily goes bang every time!
I like the way you used a one handed grip there. I learned that way back in the 70s. I could rapid fire all 7 shots from my govt series 70 into a 7" black at 25 yards. Of course that was during my learning period of around 4k rounds. I used to reload 300 rounds at a time and head on down to the Police Range. I always thought the 1911 would be better with a 6" Barrel. Thanks for the Demo. I may buy one of these.

“I carry a .45 acp because they don’t make a .46” .460 Rowland: Am I a joke to you?
I have one in 9mm , made a little tune up but just what I do to many for myself & others . Mostly just polishing. Not really needed. almost as good as my Tac Opps 9mm SIG. but very well made. Got it in a Pawn shop for 500.00 , SIG more then double ! Most could not tell the difference in shooting them. I shot 20 yrs. Bullseye Comp. & more. Built 6, 1911's from parts on line & gun shows. Yes 1911 has always been my favorite !! Had many makes & sizes & Models.
I like how the shells fell in front of the camera just perfectly when you shot the car
Just a son and his father out having fun in the great outdoors together!
Favorite 1911 so far?? The Renaissance Custom 1911 by Guncrafter Industries out of Huntsville AR. Horribly expensive but the artistry... oh boyo, if I ever strike it rich id have one for a display case. They also make custom 1911's chambered in .50GI --- I love all 1911's, I have a 45acp, a 22LR is on the way and soon to follow will be one in 9mm, .40, and 380, gotta have them all

I tested The Bul 1911, I purchased one, it’s incredibly smooth and modern while keeping the classic shape of the 1911.
5:46..LOL! I am just glad you were sent a great new version of the 1911 when alot of manufacturers simply get that platform wrong. I am familiar with the gunsmithing feel of a perfectly made firearm you are talking about. That is truly an amazing feeling when you simply hold the firearm and cycle it as well as shoot it too. Alot of old handguns, rifles and shotguns have that feel. Great video, Kentucky Ballistics.
Scott always finds a way to pick up extreme guns and show them for our viewing pleasure 👍 And the watermelon looked like it absorbed more energy when he slammed it to the ground than being shot with 45 acp😂
Always Awesome to see an 1911 in Action! Also, I can't be the only who Breaks out into a Fit Of Laughter when I see a Random Table get Thrown for Some Reason...
Kentucky Ballistics needs a special documentary called "Behind the Berm" where you go behind the railroad timbers and film the piles of rotting watermelon and eggplant carcasses and the graveyard of tables!
I completely agree That monster would be a very good candidate to be made in 10mm!

There's a lot of 1911s I really like but something calls to me at the moment- a mix of the Strayer Voigt Infinity and the AMT Hardballer Longslide.
When we were kids, (back in the early 60s) there was a kids show host by the name of Soupy Sales. One of his jokes was, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away, especially if you have a good aim!". I thought of that for some reason....
My 1911 Springfield RO is real good...Owned 13 Years over 2000 Rds.
My favorite 1911 is the one I own, it might be a Kimber custom, customized by myself, but that thing runs! The most accurate gun I have ever shot, my CZ is very close but that .45 sings!
My favorite is my Kimber full size "conceal" 1911. All of the sharp edges have been smoothed down to allow for an easier draw. It gives the gun a very unique look and feel

Pretty amazing weapon! I was a squid from the 70's and 80's, and the colt(?) 1911 .45 cal. was the sidearm issued for shipboard security. My only complaint, was that they (the 1911 .45's) were probably from the vietnam war, and worn out pretty good. No target practice, just fam fire into the dirt berm (if you could hit it!). But yes, i agree, a six inch barrel would be a much more accurate and powerful weapon (especially if it wasn't 20 years old).

You probably had a GI grade 45 made by Remington in WWII. I have one of those that I don't think was ever issued. I can hit whatever I aim at with it. As long as it's taken care of and gets grease it can last a very long time. The problem is a lot of them weren't taken care of.

@@trashcompactorYT Weaker than a 30-30 rifle I guess. IV8888 channel shot the 45acp ball ammo from a 16" carbine and at 440 yards, it penetrated 2-1/4" worth of pine boards. Punched right through. Rated at 614 FPS and almost 200 ft-lb at that range and still hits hard. Momentum penetrates.

I love my Colt Gov't Mark IV 45acp....... in the size of a dime, out the size of the cash register !! It LOVES the 185gr super-speeders.
I do love the bul armory 191s. I have one in 5 inch and your right that slide and the trigger are like silky smooth butta!
I love the 45 ACP, and this 1911 is a gem 🔥
I own 2 1911 Government pistols. One is a RIA’s and the other is a Springfield Armory in stainless. Love both but the RIA has GI sights and my eyes are staring to go. Also the RIA has a standard plunger guide rod while the Springfield has a full length guide rod. Don’t notice much difference between the two but you do need an Allen wrench to strip the Springfield.
Lol, I have a poster with a 1911 on it. It's says: Why .45? Because shooting twice is silly. 1911 is my favorite handgun. Love my Springfield armory 1911!
They do make a 46... 460 Rowland. You should do a side by side of 45 and 460. I want to see a windshield get f'ed up.
I have a Kimber .45 acp, one of the earlier models when they were still making them in Clackamas Oregon. I had a Bomar adjustable rear sight installed, which made it perfect for me. Puts nice big holes right where I want them. What more can you ask from a handgun?

It’s crazy to me that Scott even has to add the whole “I like my Glocks” part all because as a gun KZread channel he already knows glock fanboys are gonna come out of the woodwork saying what about the G20 long slide blah blah. If you are a true gun guy you should respect and love all quality firearms equally. I love Glock, I have a G21, 45acp but I went with a Kimber for my 10mm.

I’m not a huge fan of them but I do own one. For me it’s the geometry of the grips. But as someone who enjoys shooting. I won’t tell someone to not buy one. I don’t own any other than that one but that’s my personal preference. I prefer sig, everyone is entitled to their opinion but don’t judge someone by what they carry. Just be hopeful they are proficient with it no matter the caliber.

Absolutely. I'd put ghost rings on my single action hunting guns if I were not so gunsmithing-challenged. Someone somewhere dose/did make and market them but they don't seem to be all that popular. Big old red dots and reflexes, but no nice, neat, clean, trim unobtrusive peep. Maybe it has to do with eye relief...I bet Elmer Keith had something to say about them.

It’s so hard to pick a favorite! You’ve got the M1911A1 from WW2. Was lucky enough to shoot a Ithaca 1911 made in 1943. The Colt M45A1 is another amazing pistol to shoot. But my Dan Wesson Specialist Commander has a special place in my heart haha. They are all great
