Designed by John Browning, the M1911 was officially adopted by the U.S. military in 1911 and remained in service for decades. Recognized for its reliability and powerful .45 ACP cartridge, it saw action in both World Wars, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War.

The M1911A1 variant introduced in 1924 included ergonomic modifications to improve handling and became one of the most widely used sidearms in American military history. Even after being replaced by modern pistols, its design remains a favorite among firearm collectors, competitive shooters, and law enforcement personnel.
