1911A1 by colt. I was issued one made by Remington UMC, and have Shot models made by, Colt, Union Switch and Signal, and Springfield. The best finished were those by Colt.
Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!
How about the M14. Sure its daddy was designed by a Canadian but it was re-designed by Americans, for an American caliber. It pissed off our allies who wanted an assault rifle. A few years it showed how fickle we can be when we changed to an assault rifle and left them stuck with the 308 guns they never wanted

When I think of American guns, the names Winchester and Colt immediately come to mind. For Winchester, the levers are iconic. For Colt, think of any western movie and you'll see the SAA, and watch any WWI or WWII movie and you'll see the 1911. Definitely the All-Americans!
