Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt 1911 has been a reliable firearm for the United States military for over a century, serving through two World Wars and many other conflicts. Even today, some units still use it, and it has become popular with law enforcement, competitors, and recreational shooters throughout the country. Although the firing-pin block safety, higher profile sights, and more ergonomic grips have been added over time, the basic design and excellent trigger have remained unchanged.
