Auto Colt Pistol. Developed by John Browning in 1905 and adopted by the United States Ordinance Department, with the Colt-Browning automatic pistol, in 1911, it has also been made the official military handgun calibre by several other governments. The 45 was replaced in 1985 as the official military handgun cartridge by the 9mm Parabellum.
Automatic Colt Pistol ACP is an abbreviation used to describe the real-steel .45 calibre semi-automatic pistol bullet. Invented by Colt for their 1911 range, this bullet is larger and more powerful than many, but the increased size does not allow many rounds to be stored in the gun prior to shooting. Airsoft Colt 45 replicas are often called 'Airsoft Colt 45ACP replicas', although they actually still use the same 6mm plastic BB that is used throughout airsoft.
(n.) "Automatic Colt Pistol." Proprietary term used by Colt to identify certain cartridges used in their semiautomatic pistols. E.g., .25 ACP, .32 ACP, .380 ACP, .45 ACP.
