In 1911 the model 1911 designed by the boomers Lord and Savior John Moses Browning, was officially adopted as the Army’s standard sidearm.
It then went on to win 2 world wars all by itself.
If you own one, honor the greatest Mormon by buying it a nice box of freedom seeds and saying two “Hail Murica’s”
If you don’t own one I question your life decisions. |

All joking aside, it was a great design and the barrel locking system was copied in many successful pistols.
I like target shooting them, but sold mine after a Beretta PX4 in .45 ACP, a much better pistol for me.
Browning's M2 .50 caliber machine gun is still in very common use today. |
