Traditionally, reconnaissance was a role that was adopted by the cavalry. Speed was key in these maneuvers to gain an advantage over an adversary. Military commanders favored specialized small units for speed and mobility and a key component was their specialized equipment adapted for dominance in any environment.

The Recon Series is an outstanding synergy of modern materials with a traditional 1911 feel that is well suited for many applications. All Recon Series pistol frames are machined from a forging of 7076 aircraft grade aluminum alloy which results in a 20 percent reduction in weight over a traditional steel frame. Roberts Defense has developed a proprietary hard cote anodize and Teflon finish to provide a light weight and extremely durable platform.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this particular item.

The 45 ACP (45 Auto) was designed by John Browning in 1905 for his prototype semiautomatic pistol that eventually became the legendary Colt 1911, using a .452-inch bullet. Browning proposed a 200-grain bullet; U.S. Army Ordnance, smarting from reports of poor performance of the 38 Long Colt in the Philippines, increased bullet weight to 230 grains for greater stopping power...and the 45 ACP as it is today was adopted in 1911. It remains an iconic and popular handgun cartridge for personal defense and competition, and was used by the U.S. military in submachine guns (Thompson and M3) through the 1970s. Although largely replaced by the 9mm for military use and the 9mm and/or 40 S&W in the law enforcement community, the 45 ACP is still used by the U.S. military and numerous law enforcement agencies in various applications. The standard load remains a 230-grain bullet at 780 to 850 fps, but lighter, faster bullets from 165 to 200 grain, delivering a bit less recoil, are also available. — Craig Boddington
