A 1911 isnt an automatic and you know it. She knows it too.

A hundred years ago when it was named, they named the round it fired "ACP".
Can you wake up your other brain cell and figure out what that "A" stands for?
"The M1911 is still carried by some U.S. forces. It was widely used in World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. Its formal designation as of 1940 was Automatic Pistol, Caliber .45, M1911 for the original Model of 1911 or Automatic Pistol, Caliber .45, M1911A1 for the M1911A1, adopted in 1924. The designation changed to Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic, M1911A1 in the Vietnam era.[1]"

Dude, you are showing yourself to be more ignorant all the time. Better give it up before that nice young lady (who was smart enough to marry a Marine) fires up her keyboard and verbally kicks your smart @$$ for you. (And I'm fairly certain you won't want to PO her husband...) '-}
“A 1911 isn’t an automatic and you know it. She knows it too.”
Irrelevant. The model 1911 is properly referred to as an automatic. Why? I don’t care and I don’t need to care. I just need to be understood when I ask my husband to pass me my .45 automatic at the range.
