The instructor, with extensive experience in both platforms, details critical factors such as weight, capacity, reloads, recoil, maintenance, environmental resilience, modularity, cost, and the impact of stress on performance. The analysis concludes that while the 1911 is a rewarding platform for dedicated marksmen, modern striker-fired handguns like the Glock offer superior reliability, simplicity, and logistical advantages for the average user, especially in high-stress or austere environments.
