This video takes viewers into the vault of Rock Island Auction Company, featuring a historical look at two significant pistols from the early 20th century: the Colt Model 1905 and the Savage 1907. Hosted by Brownells Gun Techs Steve Ostrem and Keith, the segment highlights these firearms' roles in the 1907 U.S. Army trials that ultimately led to the adoption of the M1911. The Colt 1905 is presented as an early iteration of the classic 1911 design, while two Savage 1907 pistols in .45 ACP are showcased, including a restored example and one with original patina, contrasting with the more common commercial .32 ACP models. The comparison implicitly favors the Colt's eventual success in Army adoption.
