https://fnamerica.com/about-fn/. FN was the only US bidder. Sig is Swiss. Trump should keep those dollars here.

Beretta is Italian, Glock is Austrian, Sig is German, and as you discovered, FN is Belgian. But they all manufacture firearms in the United States.

Make it Colt 1911 with new accelerant powder in the ammo. Toughen up the gun Kimber style . Each gun shouldd be able to tale a variety of magazines for military application. 6, 8 16 and 100 round drum. Sould der stocks could be available as kit with night vision scopes. The whole package from s simple side arm to a suppressed special ops weapon should be the contract, grips with integral laser pointer, etc, all the bells and whistles.

Colt should make it but who cares? Remington Arms would be just fine.

It could be multiple suppliers of 1911s just like it was in WWII. Only now the quality and toughness would be much higher.We have much more advanced materials science these days, make it work for us. AMERICA FIRST!
