American Icon: M1903 Springfield
The M1903 Springfield is reliable, accurate, and trusted by those who used it for its exceeding toughness. It is also renowned for popularizing what would become one of the most versatile and widely-used rifle cartridges in history, the 30 06 Springfield. This combination of effective rifle and cartridge was so successful that the M1903 Springfield was being used as a sniper rifle in the Vietnam war. Unsurprisingly, this icon is still collected and respected for sharpshooting.
Famous 45: Colt 1911
The M1911 or Colt 1911 is almost certainly the most influential pistol of the 20th century. You can now find high-quality versions of this handgun, from the popular Taurus 1911 to the boutique Kimber 1911 family. Its popularity is understandable—pistols in the Colt 1911 family are prized by everyone from soldiers and law enforcement to competition shooters.
Picasso Pistol: Steyr Hahn
It has been said that the Austrian Steyr M1912, better known as the Steyr Hahn, looks like a Colt 1911 drawn by Picasso. It is undoubtedly a unique-looking pistol, with several distinctive characteristics. For one, the Steyr Hahn features an internal magazine loaded from the top with a stripper clip. However, there is more to this handgun than a distinct loading process and the looks of a steampunk Colt 1911. Its combination of accuracy, power, and toughness in the trenches made it one of WWI's most well-respected and feared sidearms on any side. All that makes it a fun and eminently collectible handgun.
Art Deco Class: Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless
Rather than an abstract interpretation of the Colt 1911, the Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless looks like a 1911 that has been streamlined and shrunk in a dryer. The Colt 1903 was slim, sleek, and stylish, featuring an Art Deco elegance that contributed to its popularity. In fact, these pistols have always been popular—they were favorites of everyone from John Dillinger and Al Capone to General George Patton.
