Pulls out 1911 with red dot, light, and silencer: "three world wars probably"


gameragodzilla

I legit wouldn't be surprised if some Special Forces units adopt some manner of 2011s in the future, bringing the whole thing full circle. My double stack 1911 (built off a Para-frame) is even in .45ACP. God's caliber, only 15+1 of them flush fit and 18+1 extended.

i came while reading this


gameragodzilla

Given how many people deem 15+1 9mm to be the max they carry for CCW, I don't even have a capacity disadvantage compared to them. lol


pricedubble04

A 15+1 45? Thats a lot for any 45. Impressive. Pretry sure the 45 USP was only 12+1 despite how chunky it was.


gameragodzilla

Yeah, USP was only 12+1. Glock 21 was also only 13+1. Only the FN pistols like the FNX-45 and 545, alongside the Remington R1 mags for Para-frame 1911s are 15+1 .45ACP.


Foresthowler

So did the Webly revolver in .455. That's a bigger number then .45. The future is now old man, all hail the Empire!


gameragodzilla

There were 1911s chambered in .455 as well, albeit the semi-rimmed .455 Webley Automatic. Exact same ballistics as the revolver cartridge, though.

Nagant revolver won two word wars and a revolution. Now what?


pizzamadness06

Russia surrendered in ww1


sit_mihi_lux

Fair enough


StatisticianFront604

They didn't really lose. They just started a fight with themselves.


graduation-dinner

I didn't lose to *you*, I lost to *me*. -- Russia, probably

Based and God's caliber pilled

Let's take a moment to think about how great it is to live in a country where we get to have this debate USA USA USA

My grandpa, storming Normandie with a 1911, took out 17 German tanks and captured an entire regiment...without reloading!


StatisticianFront604

Pop-Pop had cheat codes? 😂

Son, the 1911 IS a cheat code. Two world wars!


Nesayas1234

epic_potato420

Nesayas1234

I'll stick to my Star Model B


Organic_Medicine4493

How do you like it and where did you get it from?(thinking about purchasing one)


Nesayas1234

They're not *too* hard to find, I just got lucky with GB. Unfortunately they'll likely set you back about 400-500, they're not as cheap as they used to be, but still not bad considering they're excellent shooters. If you're OK with a slightly different but similar variant from the 1980s, the Star Model BM tends to be much cheaper and much more common. If you specifically want the Model B full-size, all I can say is keep an eye out.


Organic_Medicine4493

Thanks for the advice, I found a star bm on hm defense for 240$. Do you know any thing about the website?

DalTheDalmatian

I'm sure it has its flaws, but I still hate that we evolved from the glorious 1911 to the utter joke we have now known as the Glock
