The first national meeting of the SIG was held on Friday, July 4, 1997
at the Annual Gathering of American Mensa in Birmingham, Alabama.

The King's soldiers marched from Boston
to seize the arms stored at Concord,
and the Minutemen met them at the bridge.

Orders from General Gage about Concord

The M-1911 and its "improved model," the M-1911A1, were the standard sidearms of the US military for about 70 years. They are extremely popular among a lot of shooters (me included) and there are millions of them out there. They're commonly known as the ".45 automatic."
Having one when I needed it probably saved me and my date from serious harm one night about 35 years ago. No shots were fired, no one was hurt, and three potential assailants were severely discouraged from bothering us as soon as they noticed they were walking into the muzzle of a .45. --- Dick Martin
