I have read and heard from many places saying one huge advantage of a Glock over a 1911. Just for giggles, I decided to field strip my 1911 3 times while timed. I managed to get it down to 20 seconds for field stripped and 1 minute, 10 seconds back together (including takedown time). Doesn't sound like that long a process to me.

How fast can Glocks be field stripped?

I might add that I have owned my 1911 about 8 months. It isn't like I have been doing it for a long time.
