Considering it does not make one iota of difference in how the gun performs ( if it is indeed different) I have not even noticed ( have owned and handles dozens of older 1911's and currently have an m45a1.

Understood, not a difference for .45. Was just curious to know if anyone else saw this and found it interesting. Not a bad thing, right? |

The newer Colts from the past decade have very good chamber support in .45 Auto....I wish I could say the same with the 10mm.

They started doing this in the '90's.

There is always a trade off the greater the chamber support there is more potential for feeding problems. I have seen this in glocks. Where people whine about chamber support but then get an after market barrel for better suppport ( which they really did not need to begin with) then Whine about reliability issues.

They changed this in the early 2000's, after the switch from XS to XSE. They are more supported, but they also have the ramp cut so it feeds more from the outer profile of the round, rather than the face. This was done to work with a wider range of hollow points.
