Have full size 1911s, Colt Commander, Colt CCO and Defender. If I really concentrate, I might feel a difference in recoil

My wife is 5'6 and weight 135 lbs. She has no trouble shooting the defender in fact she loves to shoot it. If your wife wants a .45 she will have no trouble with it either. I took the rubber grips off first thing though - very ugly in my opinion.

Let her shoot one and make her own mind up!

Well I know she really likes the looks of the defender! And as far as I'm conserned,we all want a pistol that appeals to our taste! And from what I've read in the post's,from defender owners. They must be pretty reliable,which of course is very important to me! Now don't take me wrong, I have no doubt that the CCO, Guardian, Cdp and any other pistol that has been mentioned here, are reliable as well. But I guess the bottom line is, what she likes, and the price. And the defender seems to be pretty reasonable there as well. But the jury is still out, so please any recomendations you guy's have, we still want to hear them. And thanks to everyone who has posted!
