1911

“That’s a 40?” and “That thing shoots soft” are the most often heard remarks after putting a couple of mags of 40S&W downrange with the just-released MAC (Metro Arms Corp) 3011 SLD (Standard Long Dust cover) Tactical pistol.

Pilot Mountain Arms is a gun shop founded by a former member of Delta Force. They’ve built an exceptional 1911 that is a modern version of a single stack, non-rail 1911 previously used by Delta Force.

Springfield has completely redesigned, and patented, the 1911 EMP with a shorter action and overall smaller dimensions than a standard 1911. The result is a reliable, ergonomic design that’s easy to conceal and a pleasure to shoot.

The Rock Island Armory PRO Match Ultra is a super-sized version of Browning’s eternal classic, the 1911. Competition-oriented, the PRO Match has a 5” Bull Barrel and a rail-free dust cover pushing weight forward for stability. The big steel double-stack frame holds sixteen rounds of versatile .40 Smith & Wesson, a round favored by both competitors and police agencies.

The Vickers Elite has everything you need and nothing that you don’t. It is a well-thought-out pistol with a functional need for each feature.

The Taran Tactical booth at SHOT Show 2019 featured the STI/ Taran Tactical Innovations 2011 Combat Master Pistol used in the upcoming movie John Wick 3.

No one knows what John Browning would’ve thought of a polymer 1911, but it is possible to judge how it performs. And we did just that.

Somehow, the folks at Smith’s Performance Center have made the 1911 mini-me in 9mm with all the bells and whistles that runs like a full-grown model.
