You can have 'em.

I served but I am no combat vet and if I gave you that impression I am sorry. I have been shot at and I have received comfort from a 1911 when things have gone bump in the middle of the night. I am not tough and I am no combat vet.

I have qualified on m14 1911 12guage.
One thing I believe to be good you must learn that gun to the point of building a trust with it. You do not just grab any gun and are automatically good to go.

So some of you combat vet's know some guy's reaction is different some run some fight some freeze some cry some do nothing then cry some do nothing then run so on so on I kinda know what I would do even though I never was in the service but I can say I have been in a gun fight LOL here's what happened got into a bar fight and after went to walk home got caught at the gas station witch ended up in a big brawl with my group of friends and family and there femala get what I'm saying any way between the tire iron 's and the bottle 's and knife 's and gun fire lol I $hit my pants but I still managed to fight it out and go home to take a shower then get arrested the next morning by the Fife police knocking on my door open the door to a cop pointing a glock at me any way all charges dropped self defense lol Mexican gang members in the old day's had no chance against U.S. Citizens but that was the old day's

In the past when SHTF I have often relied on training, the more you do it the more you have better focus lower heart rate and it will just feel like a day at the office for most of it.

But you have to add three inches of baseplate to get to those 14 rounds. Might as well carry full sized at that point.

Are you one of those guys that always adds two extra inches ?

I measured it it's 1.25". And 14 rounds is not bad for a full size grip. 10 is not bad with the compact grip. In 45acp.
