5 Awesome .45 ACP Handguns You Must Have (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIMh3vX-3SE#ws)

Good choices, I'm just surprised he didn't mention the Springfield XDs.

i MUST have...


none.  i cant afford 5 handguns right now.  as far as my situation is concerned, this is ridiculous. 

as far as im concerned, there isnt even ONE .45 i MUST have.  if i wanted a .45, i sure as hell wouldnt get 5, i'd get one, maybe two, that i really liked.

He's not saying you have to have five of them, he's saying that if you're in the market for a .45, these are the top five choices that he'd choose.

I didn't even have to watch the video and I understood the intent. Some poeple... SMH

in the video he's talking about "if he only had five, i'd want these five", not, "if i only had to have one, i'd pick from these 5".  Further reinforced by saying "no .45 collection is complete without a 1911".

he's talking about owning 5.

which lines up nicely with previous videos of their like "5 guns everyone should own" and such.

No HK's?  You have not lived until you have shot a nice Mark23! 
USP tatical in .45 has a very nice trigger and the expert and elite has the same trigger. 

Mark 23 /7 yards (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGiaZVRVbOE#)



FN tatical has funky grips;  First thing I'd do is to put a set of talon grips on them.  They are some how too rough for me.

I consistently enjoy the videos those guys make.  They're (almost) always interesting and informative.

 I like my HK USP.  Fits my hand like a glove.    Almost went with the FN but my neanderthal hands didn't fit quite as well.

Another fail. The pointy part of the round doesn't go in first.

idk, if you want a good 1911, its gonna run you about 2-5k.  very few of the ones under a grand will run right.

X2,magazines and ammo make a difference
My R1 likes the Wilson Combat mags.
My Norinco (1911) prefers Chip McCormicks.
