I was cleaning a shotgun in my living room and a phone call came for me- you remember hard wired phones, right? So I put down the half assembled gun and went to answer the phone. When I came back, all looked as it should and I began finishing the reassembly, but didn't check the chamber. A side note; my wife had been on me to teach her how to shoot, and I had really ragged on her about 'sloppy procedure" re making sure a gun was unloaded or not before handling it. She decided to play a joke on me- the phone call was a put up job to get her mom to call her back- while I answered the phone she loaded a live 12ga shell into the gun; it went off as I was reassembling the gun. Only a hole in my living room ceiling and damage to a few shingles and a little temporary deafness. I felt pretty stupid for being careless about neglecting RULE#1- RULE#2 likely saved my life-Never ever look down the barrel of a gun you cannot positively say is unloaded- and 5 seconds later it may be! No more shooting lessons- she thought it was a joke and never realized how close to catastrophe that came. RULE#1 is RULE#1 for a reason- some military firearms instructor did everything but tattoo that on the foreheads of my training platoon! I am everlastingly glad he did- and for RULE#2 for sure!

I think it's one of the more interesting odd-ball bullet designs, right up there with the 'musket shell' an attempt at an exploding bullet for rifle-muskets.

Worth mentioning, it is difficult to believe that the CZ75 was designed completely independent of this gun given how similar the two ended up.

The salvo taper bore idea is interesting, however, when I pitched a similar idea to a retired infantry colonel, He said plainly “We don’t want projectiles going where they aren’t intended.” Falling short, or spreading too much can cause unintended friendly fire casualties.

Probably good for those who did end up carrying an M9 service pistol? I was one of the unfortunates who enlisted when the military transitioned from the 45 to the Beretta. The Beretta 9 mm pistol is a good weapon, but I'm one of those that is proficient with 45 ACP even with the smaller magazine capacity, and I still find it to be more effective for combat situations than the 9 mm Parabellum cartridge. For military applications only way to get the same level of kinetic energy delivery as in the 45 from a 9 mm is by employing hollowpoint ammunition or hyped-up Plus-P loads, and that's not going to happen with service-wide ammunition supply due to international laws of warfare, which restrict military pistol cartridges to ball ammunition. Other than that I can engage a target in multiple conditions just as accurately and quickly as with a Beretta, and sometimes even better. The most notable anecdote about the improvement seen when the 1911 pistol was adopted was the inability to neutralize enemy combatants in the Phillipines with the then-current 38 caliber service revolvers. Added to that was the use of a semi-automatic operating system which could be quickly reloaded with magazines. So no, I don't think going to the Beretta M9 was fortunate. I've carried it and used it in combat and at least 75-percent of the time I had to expend additional shots to ensure that the target was out of commission and no longer posed a threat. I had to reload the weapon more often than the 45 and this made the neutralization ratio less efficient, not more. I am now retired and my sidearm of choice is a Ruger P90K chambered in 45 ACP. Magazine capacity is eight rounds plus one in the pipe. Built like a tank, reliable, accurate, fast. comfortable, with ambidextrous controls for my left-handedness, single/double action, with a hammer de-cocking and firing pin blocking safety, easy to disassemble and maintain, and I know that whatever I hit will absolutely feel the pain. 'Nuff said. Oorrah!

Researching the patents associated with the Colt Model 1971 I only came up with one. It is U. S. Patent number 3,682,040. En Bloc Fire Control Group for a Pistol granted 8 August 1972. Interestingly enough that patent cites Charles G. Petter's 1938 patent (2,139,203). So Roy/Colt did recognize the Model 1971 borrowed from Petter. Another interesting piece of information from Roy's patent is the drawings show the barrel/slide lockup using the barrel hood. I guess when Colt made the prototype it was easier to go with 1911 lockup than a new system.

Ian-As always, very informative! I know the subject of the piece was the Model 1971 Colt automatic pistol- but you mentioned the military trials that dumped the Colt and made what would become the Baretta 1992 M9 automatic pistol the military side arm. Sad to say but there was even more sadness to be had- the rules were not followed by Baretta- their submitted 100 guns were hand assembled at Interarms plant in Virginia, they were a prototype batch, not made of interchangeable parts- but they won. Bill Ruger won the trial on the first look, but was eliminated because his gun didn't look "lethal enough". Go look into that- there were articles in the shooting press, one I think by Micheal Ayoob. Baretta's win was a sham- all competitors were to have full factories in the CONUS- Baretta didnot, and were many months late on first deliveries. Hence the custom work done at Interarms facility in VA.

Looks like a surprisingly nice gun! About the only thing I'd change is the safety, make it hit the disconnector and call it good. Maybe two positions, one up without the disconnector for use as a decocker.

If it was on the consumer market, I might have bought one.

I’m very curious, did Colt dabble with any SMG or MG weapon systems? I’m an engineering student doing some research on Colt specifically (long story).

I believe they produced the Colt Machine Gun series, which were AR-10/AR-15 actions scaled up into LMGs, and I believe the Colt SMG is a blowback SMG in 9mm built to fit inside an M4 carbine form factor.

The Colt Monitor was a machine gun. My local gunsmith has a vintage sign touting Colt's "rifles and machine guns"

The P64 does its safety/decocker in a similar fashion, where it just cams up a block connected to the safety level that covers the firing pin

Not too bad of a pistol since it’s a prototype

whybother again your like the first person who commented on my post, you post one word and leave without explaining. If you can’t explain then don’t bother leaving anything on my post, it’s simple.

It sold for over $12.600 and it didn't even have a magazine with it! That's crazy!

I don't know why, but my first instinct upon seeing the pistol was an immediate comparison to the CZ-75.

Slide rides inside the frame even. Very similar

This reminds me alot of the Ruger P94 pistol. Nearly identical in breakdown and appearance.
