Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Colt is producing two limited-edition versions of its 100th Anniversary 1911 pistol. The first, model 01911ANVII, features a slide enhanced with scroll engraving and decorated with historic Colt symbols highlighted in 22 kt. gold. It’s finished in polished royal blue on all surfaces and sports smooth Cocobolo grips with 100th-anniversary gold-plated medallions.
The M1911 (also known as Colt 1911 or Colt Government in the case of Colt-produced models) is a single-action, recoil-operated, semi-automatic pistol chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge. The pistol's formal U.S. military designation as of 1940 was Automatic Pistol, Caliber .45, M1911 for the original model adopted in March 1911, and Automatic Pistol, Caliber .45, M1911A1 for the improved M1911A1 model, which entered service in 1926. The designation changed to Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic, M1911A1 in the Vietnam War era.
Designed by John Browning, the M1911 is the best-known of his designs to use the short recoil principle in its basic design. The pistol was widely copied, and this operating system became the preeminent type of the 20th century and nearly all modern centerfire pistols. It is popular with civilian shooters in competitive events such as the International Defensive Pistol Association and the International Practical Shooting Confederation.
