It's a semi-automatic weapon, unlocked along with Create-A-Class at level 4. An American design, the M1911 entered service with the US Army in 1911, hence its designation. Designed by John Browning, the 1911 was a composite of various elements from his earlier handgun designs, and would later become the standard in self-loading pistols. It excelled in early tests, and saw its first service in the first world war - leading to some minor improvements to its design in the A1 variant from 1924. From there, the pistol went on as the standard sidearm throughout World War 2, the Korean War and the Vietnam War - and performed admirably, despite showing its age when compared to some modern pistols. It remained the US Army's service pistol of choice until 1985, at which point the Beretta M9 took its place - somewhat controversially. Despite its 100 years of production, the M1911 remains the pistol of choice for many today - including the Marine Corps Special Operations Command, LAPD SWAT teams, and certain departments of the FBI. The M1911 fires the powerful 45 ACP round, with its slow but heavy projectile boasting good man-stopping ability when compared to lighter rounds. Magazine capacity is a little short, at 7 rounds - but extended mags will double this to a much healthier 14. Damage is standard for the pistols, on par with all others apart from the Python - The M1911 needs 3 shots to the body to kill at close range, and 5 at a distance. The firecap is standard, too - the fastest you'll be able to fire is 625 rounds per minute. Recoil is exceedingly average, again identical to all other pistols other than the Python. Given a moderate rate of fire and close proximity to your target, it's not an issue. Aim time is very quick, on par for the pistol class - and the reload is nearly identical to
