A M1911 pistol is a semi-automatic pistol-caliber handgun chambered in .45 auto round, fed by a 7 round magazine. The weapon can be attached to a holster or double holster for quick access and weight reduction.

Usage

Pros	Cons
Faster reload than a gun that does not use magazines. Higher capacity than revolvers.	Can jam. Lower capacity compared to other semi-automatic pistols. Requires magazines.

Drive-by shooting

All guns have the ability to shoot from vehicles. First press V, which opens the vehicle radial menu and open your window. Aim and fire. Drivers and passengers are all able to use this ability at the cost of reduced accuracy while the vehicle is moving. The driver cannot control the vehicle while aiming, it's recommended to cruise at a safe speed and make sure there are no obstacles that can cause a crash while you're driving and shooting.

Attachments

Iron Sight : Increases firing range by 3 tiles.
Red Dot : Increases aiming speed.
Laser Increases base hit chance by 5%.
Gun Light^Future: Not yet functional or obtainable (Build 41.78.16).

Breaking doors

It can be used to bash down doors, dealing 5 damage per hit.
