So I have this run of the mill Colt 1911 but it has one oddity that I think about from time to time but haven't been able to get an answer for.
The Barrel (chamber) is marked -.45 Auto Euro - and I don't know what this means or why it is marked this way. I am attaching pictures of the firearm and barrel in question. Appreciate any insight to satisfy my curiosity.
