6 Things You Don't Know About The 1911 Pistol
Browning’s M1911 is a legendary pistol. It is one-of-a-kind; even after a hundred years of its production, it remains to be a relevant firearm. It is still a popular gun despite the prevalence of polymer pistol handguns.
After the expiration of Colt’s patent for the 1911 handgun, there are already a plethora of manufacturers that have their own take on this pistol. Sig Sauer, Smith & Wesson, Kimber, and Dan Wesson are among the top makers of modern 1911s.
As a semi-automatic pistol, the 1911 features an impressive construction and performance. Its trigger design is considered one of the best in the world of pistols. Furthermore, it uses a steel frame that is great for recoil reduction, which, in turn, enhances its shootability. Of course, the steel architecture guarantees its longevity. The gun can simply last a lifetime.
The existence of the 1911 pistol is quite endearing. However, there is some information that you probably don’t know about it.

Apparently, the "genius" who made this video didn't know that pretty much anyone who owns or is familiar with the 1911 knows everything in this rudimentary "list" plus about 100+ facts/history regarding John Browning's timeless design. Go back to school, little boy, you surely need some education. 😉

6 Things You Don't Know About The 1911 Pistol (if you're a 12 year old). 😆
Six rounds of magazines, whoot 7:38 minute mark.
Nighthawk Customs GRP!!!
Yet you show a TT33 and a Makarov as 1911s. Shame on you.
Love the 1911👍
As usual for a ClickClack video, it is 60% good info, 40% nonsense.
3:12 says U.S. Army shows U.S. Marines.
People are upset with firearms if they've been a victim but not upset with cars if they have been in a car crash
No. 7 If the 1911 is made to John Browning's exact specifications you can put several firearms in a bag mix all up and have several 1911s with several different parts they're all interchangeable !!!! 2A all the way !

I find it interesting that one of the reports from the red cross nurses claimed there were no wounds on enemy soldiers from .45 caliber, during one of the programs I watched on WWII.
Fact number two is wrong. The 1911 was developed after the Philippine-American war. During the was, the US started with .38 caliber revolvers, decided they were not powerful enough and then issued Colt single action army revolvers in .45 long colt. That war ended in 1902, nine years before the 1911 was in US service. The Philippines may well like the 1911 but it was not used in that war.
Here is something you don't know; I was problematic. My father was a top turret gunner and navigator on a B17 in Europe during WWII. All Crewmembers were issued a 911. During the Atlantic crossing (by ship), there was a nightly line at the rail to dump the pistols into the ocean. He told me that no one could hit any target with it because of the recoil and that it weighed too much for anyone to carry comfortably
The Philippine American War occurred 10 years before the M1911 was adopted.
The Moros were the impetus that sent the US Army looking for a new pistol.
my primary is a

Am I the only one that raised an eyebrow when he didn't list Colt or Wilson Combat as a top 1911 manufacturer???? C'mon man
Best semi auto ever made. And when you run out of ammo you can brain somebody too. All steel. All real. All American.
I have a 1911 made in 1913. Carried until 6 months ago. Retired it for a new 1911. In desert storm, my unit officers carried the 1911. Love the safeties and the weight. Run out of rounds, then just club the person. I'm not into high capacity magazines. I use the standard 7 round mags.
1. Is far more concerned with Utah and J. M. Browning than any firearm. Nor does it mean much bo the design, funtion or practicality. So that does not count.
2. Yes. The inspiration, so to speak.
3. Yes.
4. Yes.
5. Yes.
6. Yes.
No. I did not subscribe or opt for notifications.
Here we go again! 6 things you don't know about the 1911 pistol. Really, Hardy a review of any 1911 is aired without the obligatory history lesson. It is the only hand gun that seem to have to be reviewed with another history lesson. Worse, you got a lot of it wrong.
Perhaps it should have red, another narrator who has 6 things he doesn't know about the 1911. LOL!

I have the Taurus 1911. It’s a great gun but at times can be fickle. You have to Polish the feed ramp otherwise you’ll have jams. In addition taking them apart is a pain since removing the recoil spring you can wind up seeing that thing fly across the room. All in all accuracy is outstanding.
3 things you may not know. 1, cock and locked is dangerous, very dangerous. U.S. Cavalry Wanted single handed cocked and locked on horseback. Once off the horses, it takes two hands goes to hammer down on a live round. This is why holsters always use a second strap on the hammer. 2, hammer down on a live round is safe, very safe. It takes a drop of over 33 feet, yes 33 feet to be fired. Many times tested in California by H.P White Labs since the 1970's. A Ruger RS 1911 with a Titanium firing pin is considered safe in California while being dropped. 3, The original choice on caliber was 9mm Largo or 9mm x 23. 9 Parabellum, 9mm Luger, 9 x 19 was the second choice.
1:33 to skip the bs.
I hate polymer striker fired pistols I like all metal guns with a hammer
The 1911 will have its day again in war
I carried a 1911 while I was in VietNam!
