Dan Wesson 1911 A2 Pistol 45 ACP 5" Barrel Parkerized

Product Details

To be produced in limited numbers, the A2 stands as a testament to the most-copied pistol design in history. Drawing its lineage from the 1911 A1, the A2 is our vision of what the 3rd generation of military 1911 could have looked like. A lowered and flared ejection port, modern combat sights, tactical beavertail and an extended thumb safety as well as a hint of undercutting the trigger guard make this one combat-ready pistol. Starting with a forged steel frame and slide, the A2 is built using top-shelf parts, each component hand-fit. Parts are blended by hand, then it is bead blasted and finished in matte blue. Double diamond walnut grips give it a classic look while the stainless steel match barrel and tight slide-to-frame fit ensure that it's no slouch in the accuracy department.

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
