Question: Have you ever seen a 1911 that didn’t have a hammer?

Re: Hammer

My dad has a Spanish American War Colt 45.

Squeezing rounds off that pistol requires serious effort and affects your aim.

I've only shot 22 caliber semi pistols.

The trigger on a semi-auto is much lighter, the fire rate is two or three times faster, and there's no hammer.

Is that not the case on large caliber semi-auto pistols?
