The arthritis in my hands is getting pretty bad anymore and my .45 1911 just has more recoil than I want to subject myself to. I got rid of my .44 Mag pistol for the same reason. I have tried lower power loads but the mass of the slide is still there. I'm seriously looking at a 9mm 1911 as I am a 1911 fan boy. I would change right now but I have more large pistol primers than small pistol, so I've been letting my 9mm pistols gather dust.
