Lot # : 9 - Auto Ordnance CO. US Army Semi-Auto 1911A1 .45ACP

This pistol sports a five-inch barrel, is 8.5-inches long overall, and is 5.5-inches tall. With an empty magazine in place this all steel pistol weighs 39 ounces. The Auto-Ordnance 1911A1 series incorporates GI specs, and features a matte black finished frame, barrel, and slide. The precision manufactured, carbon steel slide, sear, and disconnector are heat treated properly for durability over many thousands of rounds. Reliability in the world’s worst conditions is where the M1911A1 has no peer. It keeps on firing when all the others stop. There are several reasons for this. Reliability was the most important goal of the army during the intense period of development of the M1911A1. The gun is made out of solid steel with no plastic, aluminum, or sheet metal parts. The M1911A1 was built to be the most reliable combat automatic possible and it was built to last. It remains the pinnacle of military pistol design as it has for over 100 years. New designs come and go (and often go very quickly if shot much) but the M1911A1 remains the best.
