I agree as one always has to "dumb down" tools for the masses. However, I don't agree that the plastic pistol offers "superior performance" as the 1911 can get the round on target as well as any which, in the end, is what it is all about. Whether or not, it does it more economically or ergonomically may be the better debate. The fact that a pistol should be for "fighting your way to a rifle" is the more important thing in "real-world combat situations."
Also, my glasses are clear. :D
