Not All 1911 Pistols Are Created Equal

Brief History

The 1911 is the most American pistol there is. It has remained in military service for over 100 years. It has won many shooting matches and

is consistently praised for its performance.

What’s the Difference?

“I’m going to buy a 1911,” is as specific as saying “I’m going to buy a car.” Over 50 companies produce their own take on the 1911, although Colt was the first and most

notable manufacturer.

Many small companies just produced parts at first to keep up with the demand of the US military.

Later on these companies decided to manufacture full-blown 1911’s

What do you Want?

There is no “best” 1911, just like there is no “best” car. Personal preference plays a huge

role, and because so many companies manufacture the 1911 you can find one that is

perfect for you.

High Quality 1911’s

If you’re having trouble deciding what is right for you there are some very high quality models sure to treat you right. Wilson

Combat, Ed Brown, Nighthawk and Les Baer all produce superb 1911’s
