I would take both, if I had them. And all of the sexy parts.

When I was at Camp Vance, we had more 1911s than M9s, and there was plenty of ammo for both. Range day every week, IIRC.

Just remember when gun plumbing that it doesn't matter how accurate it is, if it doesn't go BOOM when it is supposed to. Stick with Ball and good mags and the issue 1911s will run fine. The Berettas, not so much, in my experience.
