The MEUSOC 1911 - The Coolest gun ever made

The MEU(SOC) 1911 came around in the mid 1980s after the 1911 was replaced as the standard military sidearm with the Beretta M9 and some Marines decided they didn't want no European 9mm spaghetti pistol going to war with them. So some armorers grabbed 40 year old M1911A1 frames and build badass, match grade fighting pistols out of them for some of the Marines and called it the M45. This is a quick overview of the history of the M45 (ASKA The MEUSOC 1911) and what makes them so cool and different from every other 1911 used in combat.
