This video compares the Colt 1911 Series 80 to modern striker-fired handguns like the Shadow Systems MR920 (Glock platform). The instructor, Trench Grenade, highlights the 1911's heavier weight, lower magazine capacity, and the potential training challenge of its manual and grip safeties in defensive scenarios. While acknowledging the 1911's classic appeal and smooth single-action trigger, the video emphasizes the reliability and ease of use of striker-fired platforms for the average shooter, particularly in high-stress situations.
