Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
This pistol is easy to handle, easy to shoot and packs a boat load of accuracy into this standard Government-style pistol. The M1911 has been through two World Wars and countless smaller wars. It has seen more action than just about any other service pistol in existence. What’s more, most modern, semi-automatic pistols owe their roots to the M1911 and its designer, John Browning.
In 1895, John Browning invented a gas operated pistol that used the hot gasses from a discharged cartridge to rack the slide and reload the chamber of the pistol, which is a concept used in many semi-automatic and automatic rifles, nowadays. He also came up with a simple trigger mechanism that would stop the pistol from reloading a round and immediately firing again. This first pistol, though, was simply a prototype.
