    Shot it yesterday. Not finicky at all with a couple different hollow points and ball ammo...about 150 rounds. The downside is I needed to adjust my grip because the left-side thumb safety likes to bite...hard. It's very small, flat and concealable. Probably won't knock the G43 out of the EDC spot any time soon, though.

    $16.70 for this? I can get the same amount of food for half this price at Chipotle, and Chipotle makes better burritos than Dickey's makes BBQ. Who do they think they are?

    It didn't used to suck. That is until I spent some time in Kansas City eating better BBQ for like 60% of the price.

    Thanks for the comments. Handling a gun in the store doesn't tell enough about how it will perform when you actually shoot it. I'm interested in a small frame 1911 with a rounded butt because the square butt mini's bite more than I like. For some guys that just means better grip. I'd like something lighter and more discreet than my G27, and the double stack mag release is a bit of a reach for my short thumb.

    I actually like Popeye's quite a bit, especially for the price.

    I forgot to mention that the sauces at Dickey's was warmer than the beef brisket!

    There's a BBQ joint (or was) up near Loveland or Ft Collins that I really liked. Norby's maybe?
