M1911

The M1911 is a semi-automatic pistol that can be unlocked by reaching Level 8. It is regarded as a reliable sidearm for various situations. With its ability to swiftly deal damage, it can certainly incapacitate an unarmored player in just 4 to 3 shots when wielded skillfully, with its magazine being more on the forgiving side of pistols, next to G17. 
This classic pistol finds its strength in medium-range encounters, carving its niche where shotguns and automatic weapons aren't the primary focus.
==Tips On Usage==
While it thrives in close to mid-range battles, when faced with long distances, opting for a more specialized tool like a sniper would be wiser. Snipers boast superior damage output and reliability at such ranges, making them more suitable for the job. It's advisable to avoid fighting large groups with this weapon due to its general slow and unfocused firerate of being a semi-automatic. Generally, in the hands of experienced players, this firearm performs admirably and proves to be a dependable choice. However, it's not the ideal option against automatic weapons as they excel more efficiently at similar ranges, and shares a similar problem akin to the G17 of faring relatively poorly against heavily armored opponents.
