.45 ACP (no ontology)

From Mazeworld

.45 ACP (also referred to as .45 Auto, more rarely 11.43x23mm) is a pistol cartridge designed by John Moses Browning in 1904. As one of the most iconic pistol cartridges in the world, often compared to 9x19mm Parabellum, a large amount of firearms have been chambered for this cartridge. .45 ACP was originally designed for a prototype semi-automatic pistol also designed by John Browning and produced by Colt, which was later adopted in the year 1911 by the United States Army as the M1911.

The cartridge was originally designed to replicate .45 Colt performance in a semi-automatic pistol. It continues seeing service even over a hundred years after its inception, starting with the US military, where the Colt M1911A1 pistol, an improved version of the original M1911, was issued as the service handgun for over sixty years (1924-1985), until it was phased out in favor of a 9x19mm pistol, the Beretta M9.

.45 ACP firearms were also adopted by numerous law enforcement agencies, and civilian shooters, particularly in the United States, as well as other military forces in the world. Even to this day, .45 ACP is still popular, and a variety of modern firearms are still being designed and produced in .45 ACP. The cartridge also provided the basis for a "Magnum" version, of sorts: .460 Rowland, which features a slightly longer case but otherwise similar dimensions.
