    Now, if I could just figure a way to carry this 56 ounce cannon concealed!
    Very nice piece for sure.

    Well I got the price down a bit and took the plunge on the PM1 and went right to the range. I got 3 in groups at 25 yards with cheap AE and not one problem through a box. That is about as good as I can do so my first opinion is that it is more accurate than I am, what else is new. Overall I am very happy with it. There are a few things to tweak and change but that was expected.

    Well, can't argue with that can ya. I have passed up a couple of DW's over the years and am now rethinking it.

    I know the CCO has a shorter frame, but was the CBOB really a pain in the ass to conceal? I ask Because I am looking hard at the VBOB. Any input would be great (Sorry if I am hijacking the thread.)

    No not really hard to conceal just heavy. The CCO has a aluminum frame. I can carry all day and forget its even there

    Are they both relatively comfortable to carry? I have no experience carrying a 1911 type pistol, I have been carrying a Kahr K9 for a while.

    With a heavy handgun a good quality holster and a heavy gun belt is a must!! You cannot scrimp, you wont get buy with a cheaprig like you can with lighter handguns
    Yes its possible to carry full sized 1911's. Like I said earlier I carried the CBOB for awhile and did OK but I never forgot it was there
    The CCO is much easier to carry , I have never looked back.
