1911 and Glock

A Colt 1911 and a Glock is a winning combination!

I certainly appreciate the sentiment behind this statement, yet Jeff Cooper said:

In proper hands, the Glock serves just as well as the 1911 - at conversational distances. And such distances are the rule in defensive combat.

I also agree with Larry Vicker's quote:

How do I know if a 1911 is the right choice for me?
That is a tough question as I feel most people are best served NOT using a 1911 as a primary sidearm. Two criteria come to mind a) A passion for the 1911 platform and b) you are willing to be your own armorer and can fix relatively minor problems or fit certain parts yourself. If you are the kind of guy that doesn’t mind tinkering with your Harley Davidson motorcycle to keep it running then you are a candidate. If however you treat your pistols like we all treat our lawnmowers then don’t get a 1911 – use a Glock.
