I’m not sure when the first “replica” or non-Colt 1911 appeared, but for more than 75 years 1911 and Colt were synonymous except for wartime emergencies. Today we not only have excellent examples of 1911’s from Colt we also have several handfuls of other companies producing the legendary .45 ACP. With that in mind we herein look at Taffin’s Top .45 1911’s from “other” manufacturers. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
