Few firearms in history have left a mark quite like the M1911. Originally designed by John Browning and adopted by the U.S. military in 1911, this .45 calibre sidearm became a battlefield legend—praised for its durability, power, and classic design. Over a century later, the 1911 still commands respect among collectors, military historians, and shooting enthusiasts.

But its legacy doesn’t end with live ammunition.

Today, the 1911 has found a vibrant second life in the world of airguns. Manufacturers across the globe now produce highly realistic replicas chambered in .177 calibre pellets and 4.5mm steel BBs, offering everything from blowback action to full-metal construction. These air-powered versions deliver the look, feel, and handling of the original while making training, recreational shooting, and collecting more accessible than ever.
