I’ll keep my origional military issue 1911 thank you!!!

There is nothing wrong with that, just don’t bet your life on it feeding hollowpoints, especially the truncated cone types unless the mouth of the chamber has been throated.
Speer used to make a 200 grain .45 ACP load called the “flying ashtray”. It maintained the ogive profile of the original FMJ ball ammo bullet the 1911 was designed to use. It is the only hollowpoint load I would trust in an original mil-spec 1911.
Personally, I would prefer a Ruger P90, a S&W 4506, or a Sig P220 for maximum feed reliability in a .45 auto handgun.
