 The Sight 1911 .45 ACP Page
I like Clint Smith's definition that "a pistol is something you use to fight your way back to your gun." Pistols have their place due to the ease with which they can be carried and brought into action, but it's important to recognize their limitations.
Some of the older 1911 pistols don't like hollow point bullets very well and have to be throated and have their feed ramps polished for reliability.
Although this ease in doing well is generally attributed to the properties of the pistol, particularly the trigger, it's my opinion that the.45 ACP cartridge contributes to the superlative performance of the handgun.

 The Eli Whitney Museum, Eli Whitney: The Family
Instead of a handful of two-story houses clustered around the Green, the town center was dominated by commercial structures — some of them as tall as five stories — while residences, most of them wooden, were spread over dozens of city blocks.
More seriously, it became apparent that, should New Haven be struck with a major fire — such as that which struck Long Wharf in 1820, destroying 30 stores and warehouses, or the fire at Orange and Chapel Streets, which in 1837 destroyed twenty buildings - the city would be powerless to fight it.
Although serious-minded citizens had been concerned about the problem since the mid-1830s, it was not until 1849 that a group led by James Brewster, Henry Peck, E.G. Read, and H.H. Hotchkiss, succeeded in obtaining a corporate charter for the purpose of supplying the city with pure water.

I would like to exclude air pistol from any discussion comparing pistol events--airgun is something that almost everyone starts with and sticks with forever, sometimes branching out into other disciplines and sometimes remaining strictly an airgun shooter.
Individual shooters have got to be able to afford their own personal target bays, and the equipment must be small enough to be loaded into the trunk of a car and taken to the range for a practice session.
But, it is harsh the truth as to why we have seen a decline in rapid fire pistol shooting and international shooting over the past 10 years.
