About the Cartridge

This cartridge was developed by John Browning and was adopted by the United States Ordnance Department along with the Colt-Browning automatic pistol in 1911. It has also been made the official military handgun chambering by several other governments, notably Argentina, Mexico and Norway. The 45 Automatic is the most powerful military handgun cartridge in use today. This is a heavy and powerful sub-sonic round. Although its muzzle energy can exceed 400 ft-lbs, its velocity and bullet weight creates a steep trajectory curve that limits its effective range to self-defense distances.

Kimber TLE II
By cjsolar5 on 06 Nov 2021
I like my TLE II. It shoots very well and is very accurate. The sights are very well defined and easy to see. I would like to get another one one of these days. I have had mine for quite a few years and plan on keeping it for many more years.

I have one that I have owned (give or take) for quite a few years. I took it out a few weeks ago and shot it. My best 3 rd group was 7/8 of inch. My best 7 rd group was 3.5 inches.
