It's this logical argument that always falters anyone who wants to assert the supremacy of the 1911 design over all else--that it's not the singular vision of one man but a result of a lengthy testing and engineering process.
It is interesting, however, how a "modern" 1911 is so similar to those made over 100 years ago and can outshoot most guns designed in the last 30 years.
