The M1911 is an American semi-automatic pistol featured in almost every installment of the Call of Duty series and is the most frequently shown weapon in the series.
Call of Duty and Call of Duty: United Offensive[]
- "A standard issue pistol for American paratroopers, favored by British airborne forces as well. The 7-round magazine is small, but the stopping power of the large .45 caliber round makes the Colt useful in a pinch."
- — Call of Duty manual description.
Campaign[]
The Colt .45 is the standard sidearm during all American and British campaign missions. It is a very powerful weapon in close quarters, but its effectiveness over range is limited due to a decrease in damage and accuracy.
In Call of Duty: United Offensive, the Webley Mk IV Revolver replaces the Colt .45 as the standard sidearm in the British Campaign.
Multiplayer[]
The Colt .45 is the sidearm used by the American infantry. It has a seven-round magazine, relatively low accuracy and does average damage. It is most useful when the player does not have time to reload their primary weapon, or if their primary weapon is a bolt-action rifle and they need to engage enemies at close range.

Call of Duty 2[]
Campaign[]
The Colt .45 is again the standard sidearm during all American campaign missions. The weapon is given to the player in the missions "Rangers Lead the Way" and "The Silo". It is more powerful than the version in the original Call of Duty, doing almost 50% more damage at close range and double the damage at long range, meaning a one-shot kill at close range, and a two to three shot at a distance. The Colt .45 reuses the weapon sounds from Call of Duty.
Multiplayer[]
The Colt .45 in multiplayer is much weaker than in the original Call of Duty. It is still a decent pistol for use as a last resort, particularly if the player's primary weapon is out of ammo, or if the enemy is very close, but its effectiveness is severely limited over range.

Call of Duty 2: Big Red One[]
- "With a design by John Moses Browning, this pistol was the standard U.S. combat handgun for over 70 years. .45 caliber 7+1 round clip."
- — Description
The Colt .45 (referred to as M1911 Colt .45 in the Bonus Materials) is the standard sidearm for American soldiers in multiplayer levels. It is handy when the player is reloading or when the player is out of ammo for their primary weapon.
When the player gets eight points in a match, they get the ability to use two Colt .45 pistols at once (similar to Dual Wield) in the Submachine Gun class, albeit with very limited ammunition.
Once the player gets sixteen points, they get more ammunition. The dual Colt .45 pistols are very effective when enemies are close, taking out three or four enemies easily. Despite its advantages, the Colt .45 is not used often by online players, as other weapons outmatch it in terms of accuracy, damage and rate of fire.

Call of Duty 3[]
- "Caliber .45ACP. Single action, semi automatic pistol adopted by the U.S. military prior to WWI. Powerful and rugged, the M1911 holds seven rounds in its magazine. Effective range of 50 feet."
- — In-game description
The Colt .45 (listed as Colt M1911 in the Bonus Materials) appears in Call of Duty 3, and is only available in multiplayer.
Multiplayer[]
The Colt .45 is the sidearm of the Allies. It has equal power to the Thompson M1A1 due to it firing the same cartridge, and is capable of killing within three to four shots. It has a magazine capacity of seven rounds, which is less than the P-38. However, it has a faster reload than the P-38, which compensates for its smaller magazine capacity.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare & Modern Warfare Remastered[]
- "Semi-automatic with medium capacity and power. Effective at close range."
- — Sidearm description
Campaign[]
The M1911 .45 possesses night sights and a seven-round magazine. It is a starting side arm in "Hunted", "Shock and Awe", "The Sins of the Father", and "Game Over", but also appears in "War Pig", in which Marines sometimes draw it when their primary weapon runs empty while under fire. It can very rarely be found in "The Bog". If the "give all" console command is used in "Safehouse", an M1911 .45 with much greater zoom than normal can be obtained.
In "Safehouse", Captain Price uses an M1911 .45 to execute Khaled Al-Asad after he is interrogated (though the sound of a Desert Eagle shot is used instead of the regular M1911 .45 sound). In "Sins of the Father", Victor Zakhaev uses an M1911 .45 to commit suicide after being cornered by Bravo Team.
In the level "Game Over", SSgt. Griggs is seen using a nickel plated M1911 .45 while dragging Soap to safety. A nickel-plated M1911 .45 can also be seen in the armory in the level "F.N.G.". The M1911 .45 plays an important role in "Game Over", when Captain Price slides his M1911 .45 across the bridge to Soap, who then proceeds to kill Zakhaev and his guards with the pistol.
The nickel-plated M1911's texture is of much higher quality than that of the standard M1911 seen in the majority of the game.
Multiplayer[]
The M1911 .45 has stats that are similar to the USP .45, even sharing the ammunition pool. Like the USP .45 and the M9, the M1911 kills in 3-5 shots depending on distance, with Stopping Power improving this to 2-4 shots. Compared to the USP. 45, the M1911 .45 has a lower magazine capacity (The M1911 .45 has 8 rounds, where the USP .45 has 12), less muzzle climb, shorter range, and higher hipfire accuracy, leading to a pistol that has a very different play style than the USP .45. Compared to the M9, the M1911 .45 has identical hipfire accuracy, better range, but a much smaller ammo capacity. Like the M9 and USP .45, it can be fitted with a suppressor.
The M1911 .45 does not appear in Old School Mode. However, it does appear in the Weekend Warfare gamemode Slasher for Modern Warfare Remastered, with Old School Mode attributes such as a 16-round magazine.
In Modern Warfare: Remastered, the M1911 .45 appears as the 1st weapon in Gun Game.

Call of Duty: World at War[]
- "American semi-automatic pistol with a high capacity. Effective at close range."
- — Description
Campaign[]
The Colt M1911 appears in some of the Marine Raiders missions as the player's standard sidearm. The M1911 is a good weapon to draw quickly if the player's main weapon runs out of ammo. The player receives the Colt M1911 in the missions "Little Resistance", and "Hard Landing". Sgt. Roebuck will sometimes draw his Colt M1911 in the campaign. It should be noted that pistols in the campaign have much higher recoil than their Multiplayer counterparts, as well as a restricted rate of fire, which hinders their effectiveness.
Multiplayer[]
The Colt M1911 is one of the available sidearms, along with the Nambu, the Walther P-38, the Tokarev TT-33, and the .357 Magnum. As with all pistols, the Colt M1911 is best used as a last resort weapon. It is the default Second Chance pistol. Like all other non-Magnum pistols, the Colt M1911 holds eight rounds. The base damage and multipliers of the Colt M1911 are exactly the same as the Nambu, Tokarev, and Walther. The M1911 only differs from these pistols in minor characteristics, such as reload time and accuracy of the iron sights. Choosing a pistol in the game is purely a matter of personal preference, and no pistol can definitively be declared better than another.
Nazi Zombies[]
In Nazi Zombies, players always start with the Colt M1911. It is a decent weapon for the early rounds, but even then it sometimes requires an entire magazine to kill a zombie. There is a variant of the weapon that has much higher damage, though it is only obtainable through console commands.
In Der Riese, the Colt M1911 can be Pack-a-Punched via the Pack-a-Punch Machine, turning it into a re-skinned M1911 with the name "C-3000 b1at-ch35". The weapon fires rifle grenades instead of regular rounds, and has a six-round magazine. It is similar to the Dirty Harry, but somewhat weaker. The Pack-a-Punched version causes lethal splash damage, and has a much slower rate of fire than the regular version.
In the iOS Call of Duty: Zombies, the upgraded M1911 does not harm the player. The same goes for the Wunderwaffe DG-2.

Call of Duty: World at War (Nintendo DS)[]
The Colt M1911A1 Pistol is essentially the same as the console versions, with the same accuracy, power, and recoil, but has a different name. The pistol looks similar to the one in Call of Duty 2 with a similar looking grip safety. The DS version also holds seven rounds unlike the console and PC version, which holds eight.
The Colt M1911A1 Pistol can fire as quickly as the player can pull the trigger button. There are two on the DS, and the player can rapidly push both, gaining a rate of fire higher than any of the automatic weapons in the game. However this tactic makes aiming impossible and will empty the magazine in less than a second.
Multiplayer[]
In Multiplayer, the Colt M1911A1 Pistol is the standard sidearm for the American faction. Like in Singleplayer, it holds seven rounds in the magazine which, coupled with decent damage and low upward recoil, make it an overall good sidearm.
Gallery[]
Call of Duty: Zombies[]
The Colt .45 is the starting weapon in the iOS game. It is rather weak and only good for the first few rounds, but it seems to have increased damage compared to its PC/consoles counterpart. Because of the slow rate of fire and small magazine size, it is best swapped out as soon as possible, but this can be ignored partially in Der Riese, given the fact that the Pack-a-Punch machine yields the same result as in Call of Duty: World at War. The C-3000 b1at-ch35 is still present, so players might want to keep the Colt .45 to Pack-a-Punch it.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2[]
- "Price? This belongs to you, sir."
- — John "Soap" MacTavish, as he hands Price's M1911 to him in "The Gulag"
Campaign[]
The M1911 .45 that Soap has in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the same one which was used to kill Imran Zakhaev during the mission "Game Over" in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Soap carries an M1911 .45 in "Cliffhanger" on his holster.
In the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 mission "The Gulag", Soap returns it to Captain Price saying "This belongs to you, sir". This is a reference to the aforementioned mission "Game Over" in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. In "Just Like Old Times", it is visible on Price.
The M1911 .45 is also visible in "Takedown", where it is used by a Militia member to threaten Alejandro Rojas' assistant.
The M1911 .45 can be seen in the holsters of people from the various factions in-game. However, it can only be used in the bonus level "Museum", from the case in the first room (with General Shepherd, "Cliffhanger"/"Contingency", and the "Takedown"/"The Hornet's Nest" showcases, etc.), although it can be seen being wielded in "Loose Ends".
It is not treated like the rest of the sidearms in that the player's movement is slower while aiming down the sights, which is similar to movement with an assault rifle. The automatic empty reload has a very noticeable delay before it begins. The M1911 .45 is one of three guns only usable in the campaign (the other two being the Dragunov and W1200).
In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered, a wounded Yuri carries an M1911 .45 in the mission No Russian. If the player blows their cover and stands next to him, Yuri can be accidentally killed by Makarov's team and drop his pistol. The M1911 can then be picked up and used by the player, albeit briefly, as the mission will eventually fail.
Multiplayer[]
A player using a sniper rifle as their primary weapon will have an unusable M1911 .45 handgun in a holster on either their belt or side.

Call of Duty: Black Ops[]
The M1911 is mostly the same as its previous versions; sporting high damage at close ranges, but low damage and fair idle sway beyond. Its iron sights are near-identical to that of the Call of Duty: World at War version. There are two different possible appearances of the M1911; in the campaign, it has its standard parkerized finish appearance, while in multiplayer and Zombies, it uses a nickel-plated finish.
Campaign[]
It is first seen in "U.S.D.D." when Alex Mason points it at Kennedy, only to find out it was only in his mind. It is the standard sidearm of the USMC and Central Intelligence Agency in the campaign. It can be seen in "S.O.G." where it is used by a Marine who is struck by an artillery shell as Jason Hudson is transported to the bunker. This is also when it first becomes available.
In "Victor Charlie", the player uses the M1911 found on the floor of the UH-1 "Huey" where the mission starts. It is used to kill the Viet Cong who killed the pilots of the Huey. It remains with the player throughout the initial, stealthy part of the mission until Mason detonates the C4, where it is replaced by a Commando and a WA2000. However, the Wii version retains the M1911 instead of the WA2000.
The M1911 later appears in the mission "WMD". It is given to the player with a silencer attached in the first building, and can be swapped out for a Soviet weapon for use in breaching the next building. After the SR-71 sequence, it is replaced by a Crossbow with Variable Zoom.
Multiplayer[]
The M1911 is an unlocked pistol at level 1 along with the Makarov and ASP in the default classes.
At any range short of 8.75 meters, the M1911 will deal forty damage per bullet, netting a three shot kill. Damage decreases linearly until 22.5 meters. At any range past 22.5 meters, the M1911 will deal twenty damage per bullet, needing five shots to kill. The M1911 has a three shot kill range of 12.9 meters, and a four shot kill range of nineteen meters. In Hardcore, the M1911 has a one shot kill range of roughly fifteen meters. The M1911 deals forty percent extra damage on a headshot. This can reduce the number of shots needed to kill, but the M1911 usually needs multiple headshots for this to be relevant. The M1911 has low penetration power.
The M1911 fires semi-automatically, and has a maximum potential rate of fire of 625 RPM, allowing the user to fire at a pace of roughly ten rounds per second without invoking the firecap. However, if using Dual Wield, the maximum potential rate of fire for each pistol held is increased to 937 RPM, allowing the user to fire each M1911 at a pace of roughly fifteen rounds per second without invoking the firecap.
The M1911 has recoil values of 35 to the left and to the right. The M1911 has no downwards recoil value, and will instead kick upwards on every shot, with the recoil value upwards being either 25 or 45. The M1911 has a centerspeed of 1100.
The M1911 allows users to move at 100% of the base movement speed, or strafe at 80% of the base movement speed. The M1911 is unique among pistols in that users can aim down the sights of the M1911 in 100 milliseconds, 50% faster than all other pistols. The M1911's reload animation is 1.63 seconds long, or 1.8 seconds long on an empty magazine. The user can Reload Cancel the M1911 after 1.1 seconds.
The M1911 has a magazine capacity of seven rounds, and a starting ammo loadout of 28 rounds.
The M1911 has the standard assortment of pistol attachments on offer. The Upgraded Iron Sights and Suppressor attachments work exactly as intended. As previously mentioned, Dual Wield has the atypical effect of increasing the firecap of each M1911. However, Dual Wield has an additional unusual effect in that the M1911's sprint out speed is made faster, at 200 milliseconds instead of 300 milliseconds. Extended Mags also has an unusual effect on the M1911 in that it will double its magazine capacity, making it unique among pistols in that sense.
This weapon is also used in the "One in the Chamber" Wager Match game mode as the only available weapon, along with the knife.
The M1911 is also the default pistol for the Second Chance perk, as it is used in Second Chance if the player does not have a handgun as their secondary weapon, or is using one with Dual Wield or Full-Auto Upgrade. Interestingly, if the player dies in last stand using the default M1911, and not a custom M1911 for that class, the death will not be counted in M1911 stats.
Zombies[]
The M1911 is the starting weapon in all Zombie maps (with the exception of Dead Ops Arcade) with eight rounds loaded in the first magazine and 32 rounds in reserve. It functions exactly as it does in Call of Duty: World at War. It is the weakest weapon available, and is only good for the first few rounds.
Although it is very ineffective at killing, it can be used for generating points for the first rounds, though with the lack of reserve ammo and inability to buy more ammo off the wall, it runs out of ammo very quickly.
When upgraded via the Pack-a-Punch Machine, it is renamed the Mustang & Sally. This upgrade gives it the Dual Wield attachment, firing grenades instead of regular bullets at the cost of the individual magazine size decreased to six and a decreased firecap. These pistols deal a lot of damage, which is on par with the Ray Gun.
The grenades are quite powerful, having a five second fuse time or exploding on impact and can be a one-hit kill as far as into round 17, provided the projectile as well as the splash damage hits. However, the projectiles also deal splash damage to the player, making PhD Flopper a good perk to have if the player will be using the Mustang and Sally a lot. The M1911 cannot be obtained from the wall or from the Mystery Box; it can only be obtained upon spawning. The Mustang and Sally is a less efficient, more powerful alternative to the Ray Gun. Each shot fires larger explosives that deal more damage, making it great for clearing crowds in open areas. They serve as an effective "panic weapon" when overwhelmed by a large crowd of zombies. If one shoots continuously at the ground, the blast radius can free a player from a horde of zombies with ease up into higher rounds, given the player has PhD Flopper.
If the player gets downed in Solo and has bought Quick Revive, the player receives the upgraded version of the M1911, Mustang and Sally, while being revived. This will not apply if the player has a Ray Gun, Winter's Howl, Wave Gun, Ballistic Knife, Python or CZ75.

In "Mind the Gap", the player can see the M1911 holstered on some of the terrorists and a few SAS soldiers are seen with a shoulder-holstered M1911 at the end of the mission before leaving Westminster Station.
Later, in "Blood Brothers", after Soap has died, John Price places his M1911 on Soap's body and takes his journal.
It can also be seen in the chest holsters of American Soldiers, SAS operatives and some GIGN throughout the campaign.

Campaign[]
The M1911 is available at the start of the campaign, and it is the starting weapon for Alex Mason in the mission "Pyrrhic Victory". It has vertical, bouncing recoil, and does roughly the same damage as its Call of Duty: Black Ops variant. However, its effectiveness compared to its previous iterations is severely diminished, as the bouncing recoil pattern makes it extremely difficult to hit targets under sustained fire. It is used as well by the Mujahideen as their secondary weapon in "Old Wounds", and Mason uses it during Kravchenko's interrogation in this mission; if he resists the numbers, Woods will execute Kravchenko with an M1911. It is also seen in the holsters of Secret Service Agents with a nickel-plating.
The M1911 makes an appearance in the Strike Force mission Second Chance. Chloe uses it when she is rescued by the SEALs and is on her way to the evacuation point.

The M1911 is a starting weapon in every Zombies maps excluding the DLC map Origins, where it was replaced by the Mauser C96. The M1911 in Black Ops II does not use the nickel-plating seen on Call of Duty: Black Ops. It is only good for the first few rounds due to its short ammo supply and tendency to run out fast without any readily available ammo source. It can, however, score a few points if used in conjunction with the knife. Nevertheless, it pales in comparison to the starting room weapons and should probably be traded off for a better weapon as soon as possible.
Should a player hold onto the M1911 long enough to Pack-a-Punch it, the M1911 will become the Mustang & Sally. Like the Call of Duty: Black Ops variant, it is dual-wielded and can fire powerful explosive grenades in rapid succession, although overuse will quickly lead to ammo depletion.
In the game mode Turned, it is the sixth and last weapon to be obtained by the human.

This pistol has stood the test of time, being used as the standard issue firearm by the U.S. Armed Forces from 1911 to 1986. It’s known for having low recoil and works great at a close to medium range. The 1911 has four variants, and the base weapon is unlocked for Create a Class once one of the variants has been unlocked via Supply Drops or Advanced Supply Drops. It’s a great secondary weapon to have on-hand when you run out of bullets in your primary."
- — Sledgehammer Games description
The 1911 was added to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare on Xbox One on September 29, 2015, and to PS4 and PC on October 29, 2015.
Multiplayer[]
The 1911 is a high damage per bullet pistol, having the highest damage among all secondary pistols that have sustained fire rates. At any range shorter than thirteen meters, the 1911 will deal 52 damage, dealing a two hit kill. This is the longest two hit kill of all secondary pistols. At any range between thirteen and fifteen meters, the 1911 will deal 34 damage, taking three hits to kill. At any range past fifteen meters, the 1911 will deal 25 damage, taking four hits to kill, two in Hardcore, or a three hit kill if all three bullets hit the head, neck, or upper torso, or a one shot kill in Hardcore if the bullet hits the enemy in one of the aforementioned regions. The 1911 will not have a two hit kill to the head, neck, and upper torso between thirteen and fifteen meters, but the 1911 will do so easily to injured opponents. In spite of high damage per bullet, the 1911 has low penetration power, meaning that the user will likely fail to shoot through any surface bar glass windows.
The 1911 has an odd rate of fire. It is semi-automatic, but the firecap is extremely high, at 800 RPM. This is identical to the Atlas 45. Firing at 800 RPM will give the 1911 an almost unparalleled damage output inside its two hit kill range, but since the 1911 has a short magazine, it would be wise to moderate the fire rate to a slower amount as to not burn an entire magazine within a second.
The 1911 has odd accuracy as well. The iron sights are simplistic, and the recoil profile is very small. However, the 1911 has a pitiful 750 centerspeed, with the centerspeed and recoil profile the Atlas 45 uses. The low centerspeed again encourages users to moderate their fire rate, as the 1911's centerspeed will allow the 1911 to pull quite some distance away from enemies in spite of low recoil numbers when firing fast.
The 1911 has odd handling traits for a pistol. While it moves at 100% of the base movement speed, the 1911 takes 0.2 seconds to aim versus the typical 0.125 seconds that most pistols have. The 1911 has the typical hipfire spread on most pistols. To make up for the slower aim speed, the 1911 reloads quickly, taking 1.2 seconds to Reload Cancel the 1911's regular reload, and 1.7 seconds to reload cancel the 1911's Speed Reload. These speeds are almost identical to the Atlas 45, with the 1911 performing regular reloads quicker. Overall, the 1911's handling traits are pretty good, but the longer aim speed may not suit the fancy of some.
The 1911's biggest weakness is its magazine capacity, at a very short seven rounds. This magazine capacity is the smallest of all magazine-loaded pistols by quite some margin, and the 1911 suffers immensely from the shortcoming. Thankfully the fast reloads can help mitigate this issue somewhat, and Extended Mags is available. The 1911's small magazine capacity also makes the 1911 have only 28 rounds to start with, one of the smallest such ammo loadout in the game. A weird weakness of the 1911 in this regard is that the 1911 has the smallest reserve ammo loadout of all pistols when using Scavenger, with a maximum of 42 rounds in reserve, although Extended Mags can easily alleviate that issue.
Another unique weakness of the 1911 is that, when first switched to, the cocking animation will be played, similarly to some primary weapons when being overkilled and the FMG9, and unlike the other pistols. In a pinch, this can cost a 1911 user who didn't previously do so his or her life. using Fast Hands and/or completing the animation as soon as the player spawns in can easily solve this problem.
The 1911 has a limited attachment selection, as all optical attachments are not available, although most of the useful attachments remain available. Extended Mags, as already mentioned, is a great attachment to use to help alleviate the 1911's ammunition weaknesses, increasing the painfully short magazine capacity to ten rounds and increasing the starting ammo loadout appreciably.
Akimbo is an odd attachment on the 1911. The damage output at close range reaches unprecedented levels, but the hipfire accuracy leaves something to be desired from such phenomenal potential, and the 750 centerspeed will have a toll on the player's accuracy when firing up to 1600 RPM, pulling upwards harshly.
The Laser Sight will increase hip-fire accuracy marginally. This is best used in tandem with the Royalty variant, which already increases hip-fire accuracy by twenty percent, for a total 27% percent increase in hip-fire accuracy. The Parabolic Microphone helps detect suppressed weapons fire when the 1911 is currently in use. This attachment can help in keeping better track of enemies that use stealth tactics to conceal their positions.
The Tactical Knife is functionally useless, making it unreasonable to use.
The Suppressor is a dangerous attachment on the 1911. The 1911 relies heavily on a ranged two hit kill, something that the Suppressor antagonizes. This is reason enough to avoid using the Suppressor on the 1911. On the other hand, Advanced Rifling helps in maximizing two hit kill potential, increasing the two hit kill range to about fifteen meters.
The 1911 has mostly good variants to use. The Royalty variant has two powerful effects: it increases movement speed to 105% of the base speed, and tightens hip-fire accuracy by twenty percent. Both effects are extremely powerful in the case of the 1911: a light, close quarter powerhouse. As a penalty, the recoil per shot is increased by ten percent, a small price to pay for two great advantages.
The Single Stack gives an additional reserve magazine, while increasing recoil by ten percent. Again, the increased recoil is a small price to pay for a useful advantage. The Single Stack is potentially the best 1911 variant when not using Scavenger because of the extra reserve magazine.
The Forty-Five Caliber variant has two positive effects: it increases the minimum damage to 28, and the firecap is increased to 857 RPM, with the firecap not being reduced when using the Forty-Five Caliber Akimbo, whereas all other 1911 variants have their firecaps reduced. As a downside, the Forty-Five Caliber has one less reserve magazine. The Forty-Five Caliber is best used in tandem with Scavenger in order to compensate for the reduced reserve ammo, and is a good candidate for Akimbo due to the increased firecap over all other 1911 variants Akimbo.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III[]
- "Semi-auto pistol. Low ammo capacity. High damage at close range."
- — Description
The 1911 was added to Call of Duty: Black Ops III multiplayer on May 23, 2017. It is depicted as the regular M1911, albeit with a different name and with a more "modern" design to it, with an addition such as the night sights. This weapon can only be acquired through the Black Market.[1]
The 1911 is a high damage per bullet handgun. After a buff, It now deals 50 damage at close range, resulting in a fast two hit kill under eight meters of range. However, the damage drops off to 22 at its maximum range of at least 27 meters, resulting in a consistent hit kill at longer ranges. The 1911 is best used at closer ranges considering the huge damage dropoff at medium to longer ranges. This damage output is the highest out of all of the handguns in Black Ops III with the exception of the Rift E9 and the Marshal 16.
The rate of fire on the 1911 is very similar to that of most of its counterparts in other Call of Duty games, clocking in at about 625 RPM, which is similar to most of the other handguns available in Black Ops III. The high RPM allows for quick shooting, which may prove very useful considering the extremely low recoil on the weapon and the very high damage profile.
The 1911's weaker point is the ammunition capacity, clocking in at only 7 rounds per magazine, though the Extended Mag attachment extends the capacity up to 14, making the attachment very useful on the 1911, and can allow for prolonged shooting and more spare ammunition.
On July 10th, 2017, the 1911 along with the AK-74u was added to the remastered versions of Nacht der Untoten, Verrückt, Shi No Numa, Kino der Toten, Ascension, Shangri-La, and Moon as the starting pistol once again, replacing the MR6. It functions exactly the same as it always has, with only aesthetic differences.
Should a player hold onto the 1911 long enough to Pack-a-Punch it, the 1911 will once again become the Mustang & Sally. Like in previous games, it is dual-wielded and fires powerful explosive grenades in rapid succession, although overuse will quickly lead to ammo depletion.
It also appears as a silhouette visible on the Respin Cycle GobbleGum, along with the SPAS-12. It also appears on the Arms Grace and Disordery Combat with the AK-47, as well as on the Armamental Accomplishment and Near Death Experience GobbleGums. On Shadows of Evil, during the loading screen, Jack Vincent and Jessica Rose are seen holding the 1911 instead of the Bloodhound used in-game.
In the map The Giant, once the player activates the Fly Trap easter egg, the teddy bear on the balcony by the Power Switch can be seen holding a 1911 along with a Juggernog bottle.

Call of Duty: WWII[]
- "High damage semi-automatic pistol with moderate recoil."
- — Description
The 1911 appears in Call of Duty: WWII.
Campaign[]
The 1911 is commonly used by members of the 1st Infantry Division as their sidearm of choice. It is part of the starting loadout for all levels except "S.O.E.", "Liberation", "Collateral Damage", "Battle of the Bulge", and "The Rhine". In "Ambush", the player's 1911 has a suppressor attached to it.
Multiplayer[]
The 1911 is a high-damage handgun in WWII. It is able to kill an enemy in two shots at a very close range. It is limited by a 7-round magazine, a slow rate of fire and high recoil. Advanced Rifling or Extended Mags are good attachments to use, extending the two hit kill range and mitigating the small magazine slightly, respectively. With the other weaknesses of the gun still prevalent, however, it is recommended not to use this weapon outside of a close range, as a backup sidearm, as its inaccuracy proves to be detrimental rather quickly. In Hardcore game modes, the weapon is capable of being much more effective. The 1911 is capable of a one-shot kill at all ranges, unless firing through cover. As a handgun, the weapon boasts handling traits which rival or best most other guns in the game; it has a fast sprint-out time coupled with a near-instantaneous ADS time, along with decent hipfire accuracy. In this sense, the 1911 can be used almost as a primary to net one-shot kills at any distance, as its faster handling can beat out most other guns at close ranges and continues to be competitive out until medium range. As long as the player can get the first shot on target to secure the kill, the recoil and slow rate of fire cease to remain problems, and the gun can be used very effectively as a pseudo-primary of sorts. High Caliber should also be avoided as it does little to increase head shot damage on the 1911.
Nazi Zombies[]
The 1911 is one of the selectable default starting weapons in Nazi Zombies, and is also found in the Mystery Box in all maps. In comparison to starting pistols in other Zombies modes, the 1911 in Nazi Zombies is considerably strong, akin to the Bloodhound in Shadows of Evil, capable of killing a zombie in round 1 with 3 body shots.
When upgraded with the Ubersprengen or by Mk. II Freefire special mod, the 1911 becomes the Bacon and Eggs. This upgraded variant grants Akimbo pistols that shoot explosive bullets. Unlike the Mustang and Sally in Black Ops games, or other similar Pack-a-Punched starting pistols, the explosive splash of the Bacon and Eggs do not harm the players, even without the Flak Jacket mod. This makes the weapon incredibly viable in high rounds, as there are no risks of self-inflicted damage.

Call of Duty: Mobile[]
- "Semi-automatic with medium capacity and power."
- — In-game description
The M1911 returns in Call of Duty: Mobile as the MW11.
Multiplayer[]
The MW11 is a very stable semi-automatic pistol. It has notably high damage, especially to the chest and head, where it has high multipliers, allowing it two-shot to the head or three-shot to the torso, though it has high visual recoil, which can prove troublesome at range.
Lightweight Trigger is invaluable, as it will accelerate both the fire-rate and time to kill, and works well when paired with the 20 Round Magazine for maximum firepower. Sleight of Hand is also very useful as it will greatly enhance the reload.
Battle Royale[]
The MW11 can deal moderate damage with high rate of fire. It is currently unavailable for looting in Classic Battle Royale, though it can be equipped in the personal loadout. Additionally, when a player is killed and a teammate scans their dog tags, they respawn with an MW11.
If a player is downed while using the Desperado class, they will pull a unique MW11 with an 18-round capacity, which cannot be reloaded or ADSed with. When killed, they will drop their MW11 in their loot box, though the gun does not have reserve ammunition, even if the player who picked it up has Light Ammunition in their inventory.
The MW11 can be looted in the Sniper Challenge; it is also the starting weapon in Blitz mode.
Zombies Classic[]
The MW11 is available as a starting weapon. It is only effective in early rounds, and players would switch the MW11 to another weapons off the wall or the Vending Machine instead. It is also given to downed players, though it can not be aimed, forcing players to hipfire with it.
A rather potent combination lies with the Poltergeist skill, which doubles pistol damage. In Endless mode, this means players can kill zombies with singular headshots.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War[]
- "Semi-auto pistol. Good accuracy with a modest ammo capacity. High damage in close range encounters."
- — In-game description
The 1911 returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
Overview[]
Campaign[]
The 1911 is the main sidearm for many of the factions, including the Soviet Armed Forces. In the melee takedowns, both Alex Mason and Bell take their enemy's 1911 to kill them. It's the primary weapon in "Nowhere Left to Run" and "Brick in the Wall", and is the secondary weapon in "Fracture Jaw", "Redlight, Greenlight", and "End of the Line". It's also used as a primary and secondary in the different scenarios in "Break on Through".
Zombies[]
The 1911 can be brought into any map via Create-A-Class, at Loadout rarity and can be found at any rarity via the Mystery Box for 950 Essence. Within Die Maschine, It can be found in the Omega Outpost, placed on the far most wall to the operation as a Wall Gun costing 750 Essence coming with 3 attachments and at Uncommon Rarity. When upgraded via Pack-a-Punch Machine it becomes the Pain, gaining increased stats. While equipped with the Dual Wield attachment, the upgraded variant gains the name Pain & Suffering. The Pain also functions as the default pistol for when a player is put into a downed state without a weapon that can actively be utilised in the downed state.
Unlike how the prior instalments handled the 1911, Pain alongside Pain & Suffering function more typical to a standard upgraded variant of a weapon, lacking the grenade projectiles of the Mustang & Sally upgrades of the past. In turn, Pain functions in an extremely different manor, being more suited for critical shots with an above average critical multiplier.

Trivia[]
Call of Duty[]
- While aiming down the sights, it is not possible to see the front sight.
Call of Duty 2: Big Red One[]
- When using the sights, the player may notice a small gap in the textures on the left side of the hammer, allowing the player to see through the weapon.
Call of Duty 3[]
- When meleeing with the M1911, the soldier will punch with his left hand instead of hitting over the head with the butt of the gun.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare[]
- During the beta, the gun was called "M1911 Colt .45".
- When Khaled Al-Asad is executed by Price with an M1911 .45, the firing sound of the Desert Eagle is used for dramatic effect.
- This also occurs in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered when Darren "Graves" Cosgrave fires his M1911 .45 during one of the Depot sequences.
Call of Duty: World at War[]
- When the player upgrades the M1911 in Der Riese and has no other weapon, they will pull out a second one instead of having no gun.
- The numbers and letters in the name of the Pack-A-Punched version of the Colt M1911 reads "Biatches", a slang term for bitch.
- "C-3000 b1at-ch35" translates to "See-3000 biatches" or "See 3000 bitches."
- In the Nintendo DS version, there is no trigger guard or trigger in third-person.
- On the Wii version of the game, the Colt M1911 has the same firing sound as the .357 Magnum, and the reloading sounds are used on the Nambu, Tokarev TT-33, .357 Magnum, and Walther P38.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2[]
- When the M1911 is out of ammo, it has a different and slower holstering animation.
- In "Museum", if the player points the gun at a friendly just before the empty reload sequence cuts in, the gun will not reload.

Call of Duty: Black Ops[]
- The Dual Wield M1911 in multiplayer has a unique empty reload. During an interview with the Treyarch developers, one of the developers discussed the fact that they had been taught how soldiers reload their handgun one-handed, which is what it was based on in the game. Dual Wield M1911s also have a unique draw animation.
- On the Nintendo Wii version, the M1911 has a different firing sound, sounding much like the M1911 from Call of Duty: World at War.
- The Ascension scientists in "Executive Order", "WMD", and "Rebirth" all have M1911s holstered that use the Call of Duty: World at War model.
- On the Nintendo Wii version of multiplayer and Zombies, the M1911 lacks the nickel-plating, instead retaining the original design used in the campaign.
- On the cover art of Call of Duty: Black Ops, the soldier is holding two M1911s, the left one with the name 'Sally' engraved into it.
- The achievement "Sally Likes Blood" is a reference to the M1911 on the cover-art for the game.
- The Pack-A-Punch variant of the M1911, the "Mustang and Sally" is a reference to the 1966 song "Mustang Sally" by Wilson Picket.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II[]

- Secret Service Agents, LAPD, Colossus Security and Militia can sometimes be seen with the Call of Duty: Black Ops version of the M1911.
- The words "Presented on August 13, 1934" are present on the side of the gun.
- In Zombies, in the first person view, the player holds the Mustang and Sally at an angle.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare[]
- The 1911 Single Stack erroneously states a reduction in fire rate and an increase in handling.
