Alright, first of all, this is the 1911 forum. I don't care why you like your plastic fantastic, your revolver or whatever other handguns you may love. I own non-1911 handguns as well, but again... this is the 1911 forum. Some of us are chest-pounding die-hard 1911 guys, while others are just interested in them. That's fine, but remember where you are. Hopefully we are all adult enough to bypass the pissing contest bullshit and enjoy this for what it is. Entertainment.
This thread is a collection of 1911 / .45 ACP related quotes that I have found throughout a search of the internet, and a lot of them come from the motivational poster thread, as well. Add quotes as you find them, and I will update the list. 
Without further adieu, enjoy! 1911 Quotes 
(Photo is of SGB's Colt... ) Updated: 27 May, 2010 @ 18:11 .45: For when you want to send the very best. .45 is like 9mm for adults! 45 ACP: Because a 9mm MIGHT expand, but a 45 will NEVER shrink .45 ACP: Because they don't make a .46 (Alternate: Why do I carry a .45? Because John Browning never designed a .46!) .45 ACP: Because some people aren't worth shooting twice. .45 ACP: Because you don't need double stacked fifteen round mags when you are carrying the Lords round of choice. .45 ACP: Because shooting twice is silly! .45 ACP Hollowpoint: The only round capable of carrying water to your horse. 1911: If you can't conceal a Howitzer, carry the next best thing. 1911: Sic deus dilexit mundum (For God so loved the world) 1911: Losers would use something less. 1911: It's like a Glock for men! 1911: Giving Glock owners something to bitch about since before Gaston Glock was born. (John was a forward thinker!) 1911: Fear no man, no matter his size, for I am the equalizer. 1911: Because if pistols were supposed to be made out of Tupperware, John would have made it that way. 1911: Because Tupperware belongs in the kitchen, not on the range. 1911: After two World Wars and one Cold War, it still goes bang every time. 1911: Even 100 years later, it's still the best defensive pistol the world has ever own. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with a ".4" 1911: Because God is on our side. 1911: It ain't designed for pussies. 1911: Because a Glock may go off in your pants. 1911: Because real guns aren't microwave safe and made from recycled baby bottles. 1911: Why would you pistol whip someone with anything else? 1911: Because pistol whipping someone with plastic won't get your point across. 1911: It's almost a four letter word. 1911: Upholding the promise to defend against all enemies, foreign and domestic, for an entire century. 1911: For when you come to grips with the fact that the game of life is single elimination. 1911: Because a cop won't fit in your holster. 1911: Given by God on the mountain-top to John Moses Browning to smite thy enemies. 1911: If I want a plastic gun, I'll buy a BB gun from Wal Mart. 1911: Very few changes in 100 years of service. (Can't say that about many other handguns...) 1911: Like Right Guard, anything less would be uncivilized. Idiot Scratch: Because you're an idiot. (Only 1911 guys will really understand this one...) Rifles are for fighting your way back to the 1911. As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil for I carry the baddest fucking pistol John Moses Browning could design. Providing the enemy to die for their country since 1911. Delivering 230 grains of "Fuck you up" to U.S. enemies since 1911. The muzzle of a 1911 pretty much says "go away" in any language. ("The muzzle end of a .45 pretty much says "go away" in every language." -Clint Smith) It is a little known fact that a 1911, loaded with 230gr. JHP is the only thing in the universe that Chuck Norris is afraid of. The lusty Colt- The trusty Colt The weapon democratic Whose vicious might Makes men one height The Army automatic "And Lo they didst chamber it for calibers whose numbers starteth with less than the Holy Number 4, and the Lord did cause great grief amongst these men when their enemies, who were struck in battle with the lesser calibers, did not fall but continued to do great harm." -The Gospel according to John Moses Browning, 19:11 "Of course the 1911 is an outdated design. It came from an era when weapons were designed to win fights, not to avoid product liability lawsuits. It came from an era where it was the norm to learn how your weapon operated and to practice that operation until it became second nature, not to design the piece to the lowest common denominator. It came from an era in which our country tried to supply its fighting men with the best tools possible, unlike today, when our fighting men and women are issued hardware that was adopted because of international deal-making or the fact that the factory is in some well-connected congressman's distract. Yes, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the 1911 IS an outdated design... and that's exactly what I love about it." -Rosco S. Benson "The 1911 pistol remains the service pistol of choice in the eyes of those who understand the problem. Back when we audited the FBI academy in 1947, I was told that I ought not to use my pistol in their training program because it was not fair. Maybe the first thing one should demand of his sidearm is that it be unfair." -Col. Jeff Cooper, about the 1911 Pistol "Pistols do not win wars, but they save the lives of the men who do. The noble 1911 is a mechanical marvel, whose ruggedness, dependability and ferocious power have comforted four issues of GIs, and which, unlike any other instrument you can name, is as much superior to its rivals as it was in 1917." -Col. Jeff Cooper, about the 1911 Pistol, January, 1968 "We have long maintained that the only accessories that a 1911 needs are a trigger you can manage, sights that you can see, and a dehorning job. That still goes." -Col. Jeff Cooper, about the 1911 Pistol "The 1911 was the design given by God to us through John M. Browning that represents the epitome of what a killing tool needs to be. It was true in 1911 and is true now." -Col. Robert J. Coates, USMC |

| No arguements from me. Unitil last year all my semi-automatic centerfire pistols were Colt 1911 pistols. Used one in the Army (battalion combat pistol team), bought one for my own use shortly after that (Colt 1911), carried one while I had a job in LE (Colt Combat Commander) and like them well enough to buy the same for my sons. They can buy themselves something else when the they get older if they want but their first centerfire semi-autos were Colt 1911 pistols. |

Thanks, SGB... those are the kinda quotes I'm really looking for... more so than motivational poster types (which are still cool)... really cool to hear about people's love affair with them that actually trusted their lives to them in combat and such.

My old man carried on in the Marine Corps, and my parents bought me one for my 21st birthday. I've bought myself four others in the six years since then, but sold one... only owned one non-1911 pistol (still have it, and still like it, but it just doesn't have the appeal.) |

The following is an excerpt from the book A Rifleman Went to War, by Captain Herbert W. McBride, of the Canadian Expeditionary Force and the United States Army. He fought in World War I, mostly in France, and went from junior enlisted to officer during that time. This was written in 1935:
As I was quite familiar with the new Colt Automatic, I was able to be of some assistance during the preliminary work of breaking them in, and it was not long until the officers were accustomed to the peculiarities of the gun and could make it behave to their satisfaction. Those who had had experience with the revolver entertained the almost universal prejudice against the automatic. Funny, isn't it, how we hate to discard our old loves and take up with new ones - in the shooting game I mean, it appears to be easy enough regarding some other things. But even the most conservative of the old-timers soon recognize the real advantages of the later type weapon. I staged several realistic demonstrations; including fast reloading in the dark and such stunts, and that converted most of them. As to reliability– dependability in an emergency – there was little choice between the revolver and the automatic. Both types would function properly with the same degree of care. It is possible that there were instances of an automatic "jamming" now and then, but I personally never had it happen to me during the war, nor did I see or hear of any instance of it happening. All these arguments as to the relative merits of the revolver and the automatic pistol will probably continue for another generation. Most of the old-timers who learn to shoot with the revolver have a deep-seated prejudice against the automatic – but when it came down to the root of their argument, it all seems to base upon the "hang" of the two guns - the newer automatic does not point right with the same old habitual "kink in the wrist." I have used the 45 automatic ever since 1911, but for 20 years prior to that time had used the revolver. Even now, I find myself having a sneaking sort of preference for the revolver and feel confident that I can make a better score on the target with it, either slow or rapid fire. But in spite of all of this, I unhesitatingly chose the automatic for actual use in war. To my mind, the great advantage of the automatic lies in the ease and rapidity with which it can be reloaded – especially in the dark. Anyone who doubts this can easily satisfy himself by trying to hurriedly reload a revolver in the dark, with a crowd of roughnecks milling all around and trying to hit someone with clubs, knives and fists. Or, if this seems too rough just get some friend to jostle you about or run into you while trying it... There's just one little trick the user of the automatic should train himself to keep in mind – and do – reload while there is still a cartridge in the chamber; do not shoot until the gun is entirely empty. Even though you have fired but four or five shots, better drop out that old magazine and slip in a full one... ..."Close up" work is the only place that the pistol figures in warfare. Now I'm going to tell you the honest truth about something. During my war experience, which extended from September, 1915 to February, 1917 and included innumerable little contacts with the enemy and several major battles, I fired exactly 7 shots at an enemy with my pistol. Seven – count 'em. I used up quite a lot of ammunition, shooting at rats, rabbits, and tin cans, but as to shooting Germans, well, I've told you, seven was all and the longest range at which I fired at these individuals was never more than 10 feet. But brother, those were seven badly needed shots. There may be a moral in this: I don't know. If so, figure it out for yourself. But there is no doubt in my mind that the mere possession of a reliable pistol – and the knowledge how to use it – is a tower of strength for the soldier who goes up against any enemy. He may never use it, may never have a chance to use it, but it sure does give you a lot of confidence to know that you have the old "gat" handy, in case you do happen to bump into some wild eyed individual coming at you with a bayonet... ...The main thing in considering any military pistol is the matter of dependability. Will it work in all kinds of weather? In mud – in sand – in water? Well, we all know what tests were applied during the two or three years before our Ordnance officers finally approve the Colt. Two solid years of real, practical use, in service in the Islands and in the tests for what you might call durability in which all the others – there were only two, which shall not be named by me – fell by the wayside while the old Colt, refusing to quit, finally wore out the time and patience of the members and board and had to leave it with an unfinished run of some 10,000 rounds without stoppage or malfunction. I was present at that last test, and that may have had something to do with my attitude toward the ugly brute. Still, I can say that my experience in France, as well as that of others of my acquaintance, only tended towards verifying the findings and opinion of our Ordnance board. Those of us who were fortunate enough to be armed with the .45 Colt Automatic found it to be a sufficient and dependable arm in every respect. Let me repeat that I've never had a failure to function properly while in action, nor did I ever hear or know of any such failure occurring with any of my associates or acquaintances. After I came back from the battlefield I commenced to hear of a great many instances in which the gun supposedly gave trouble, but these are invariably told by persons not in the Army or whose line of duty was such as to preclude their ever having actually participated in real fighting, or even front-line service for that matter. Furthermore, I did not consider the automatic pistol to need any special care or attention to keep it in serviceable condition. We had trouble enough with all our firearms for that matter and any rifle, machine gun, revolver, or pistol had to be looked to daily to keep the mud and dirt out of its action and bore. If anything, our handguns were a bit easier to keep in proper shape than the others, because they remained in a holster or inside pocket of a tunic and were not laid down on the ground or exposed to the elements very often. Any military firearm requires daily attention and care to keep it in proper readiness for instant use, and neither pistol nor revolver is any exception to this standing rule. |

If the excerpt is good indication of the rest of the book, it'll be right up my alley. (my library doesn't have it from an online search, I'll go down there when they open, and see....they (all libraries?) have that inter-library loan system, supposedly you can get any book that way)
It's on kindle cheap, like 2-3 bucks if anybody does the e-book thing. Amazon and ebay seem to be the other cheapest ways to get one new online. Ebay has an illustrated version, for pretty cheap....I thought it was like $15 or there abouts. |

I used to eat at a local restaurant right outside the south gate of Camp Shelby, run by two sisters who hailed from New Orleans. Their dad was a WWII veteran who had evidently kept his service pistol when he came home from the war in Europe. They had an old newspaper clipping from the Times-Picayune about how their dad chased a guy who had just strongarmed one of his friends, and corralled him at pistol point until the law arrived. When the reporter asked the old vet if he was scared at any time, the old guy responded, "Nah, it was like takin' candy from a baby. With a .45 you're the champion."
I like the way he put it. |
Let a man never stir a step on the road without his weapons of war, for unsure is the knowing when need shall arise for a spear on the way without.
| The 1911 platform... whether it be a GI model with only updated Mil-Spec sights, to a semi-custom version, onto a fully customized 1911... it doesn't matter will always be my most certainly favorite handgun for life. It's loved for its design and rugged reliability, superb ergo's, and operation. I'm a relatively young guy too... (old-soul though I guess) and I too have no love for anything plastic and have sold off all those years ago. I must admit though that I find vintage 3" barreled N frame Smith's either in .44Special and/or .44Magnum "Just" the way Lew Horton spec'd and requested them out and positively with a set of Goncalo Alves 80's Combats is a very close second favorite for this young man. Same for the wifey as a Springfield "Loaded" model is her favorite pistol ever and all she want's to shoot... And of course in the very same caliber that Mr. Browning intended it to be! |
