Overview of 45 ACP Ammo

The .45 ACP, developed by John Moses Browning in 1905, is a cornerstone of American ammunition known for its power and reliability. It offers excellent stopping power and accuracy, making it ideal for personal protection, law enforcement, and competitive shooting. Originally designed to meet the U.S. Cavalry's need for a more effective round, it became the official sidearm of the U.S. Armed Forces in 1911 with the M1911 pistol. Favored by units like the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team and LAPD SWAT, the .45 ACP's versatility and effectiveness continue to make it a trusted choice over a century later.

  • Taken advantage of said:

    This ammo has the small primer pockets with no mention of it. I purchased 1000 rounds. When I noticed it had the small primers and contacted Ammo.com I was told it could not be exchanged for 45 ACP with the large pockets after 30 days, it was 31 days after the purchase. I reload everything so to me this is worthless. All they had to do is write one sentence, small primer pockets and I would have gone to the next 45 ammo. Now I will go to a different supplier.

  • SIW said:

    I've sent a quite a few hundred down range with my 1911, and my SA XDM 3.8. Not one issue.

  • Harry said:

    So far only fired 100 rounds. Had one stovepipe in first 50, and two stovepipes in second 50. The pistol is 50 years old and in near-perfect condition. I normally do not get more than 1 hung case in 500 or more rounds, much of it Blazer Brass purchased locally. As I get more experience with this lot of Blazer Brass, I'll try to update my opinion.

  • Jim said:

    Thanks for the quick service. This ammo ran flawlessly thru my 1911 gold cup and my grandson's glock. We both fired over 600 rounds each during the handgun course we attended.

    Great performance for the price. A good value.

  • Rick said:

    Good Rounds and at a "comparatively" reasonable price to other suppliers gauging prices to take full advantage of a Government incited panic.
