“And while I like .45 1911’s, they are dated”
I prefer to think of them as timeless.....
Flawless service for nearly 100 years, and the pistol of choice for most Special Operations Military guys......
Good enough recomendation for me!

The .45 is the CALIBER of choice for Specops, but NOT the 1911 variety.
H&K and like modern DA pistols get the nod.
