About The 1911 Officer Pistol:
The
Colt Officer's ACP or Colt Officer's Model is a single-action,
semi-automatic, magazine-fed, and recoil-operated handgun based on the
John M. Browning designed M1911. It was introduced in 1985 as a response
from Colt to numerous aftermarket companies making smaller versions of
the M1911 pistol. In 1975, Rock Island Arsenal developed a compact 1911
it called the "General Officer's Model Pistol" for issue to general
officers of the US Army and Air Force, but the pistol was unavailable
for sale to the general public. The following year, Pat Yates of
Detonics had introduced his compact "Combat Master", a chopped down
1911, with 3.5" barrel and a shortened grip frame. Seeing the popularity
of these compact pistols, other pistolsmiths began offering similar
conversions on customers' 1911s. The 1911 Officer is made by various
Manufacturers including: Rock Island Armory, Smith & Wessen, Kimber,
Colt, Springfield, Wilson Combat,Taurus, Ruger, Nighthawk,
Para-Ordnance, Remington, Sig Sauer, and Ed Brown. Officers
Size grips fit compact 1911s with approx. 3 inch barrels and short
magazines. The distance between the screw holes is approximately 2 5/8
inches.
