” For the first time in several decades, the U.S. military is buying new batches of the Colt .45
sidearm that it used during both World Wars and for much of the 20th century.
Colt Defense LLC said Friday it has been awarded a $22.5 million, five-year contract to provide theU.S. Marine Corps with the latest .45 caliber pistols that were originally
provided to the military in 1911.”
