.40 cal, now .45 . Not just NO!!!!!!
Colt 1911 in .45 was my first pistol...
A Colt 1911 was the first gun I ever shot when I was in 4th grade. Dad thought it might discourage me from wanting to shoot ... that didn't work so well. That was the gun I later sent to Austin Behlert to work his magic on. First gun I could legally buy in 1978 was a 45ACP Browning BDA. Still have it, box and manual. Still a great shooting gun too.
