Time for a bobtail 1911 45 ACP... Bought a Sig Nightmare Carry 45...

Dunno, man - I can understand completely that you love to try different guns, but to me those bobbers look goofy. I thought they were a solution to the problem of carrying a 1911 concealed without having the butt jam into your gut rather than being something practical on a range gun.

I think that I'd personally miss having that metal there when shooting the thing.

I'm not sure why they don't also bob the grip safety on em. You'd think that beaver tail could hang up on clothes or jab anatomy.

They feel better in my hand. Most modern pistols have a similar shape to them.
I like the way they look as well.
I prefer arched mainsprings as well and find that flat mainspring housings dig into the edge of my hand and don't let the grip sit nicely in the palm. The bobbed grip gives you a flat mainspring closer to the trigger grip but removes the useless material at the bottom that digs into the edge of my hand.
Win fit
Win looks
And another win if you were carrying concealed .....
 
A sig nightmare is on my to get list....

for now, I really enjoy my bob tail Kimber

Hello Shooter:

Beautiful guns!

What specific model of Kimber is that? Is it a 5" all steel model? I looked on the Kimber site and could not find any 5" bobtail models. Thank you for your time.

Chizzy
