 * Re your message: The M1911 was manufactured by Colt Firearms, but it was not designed by Samuel Colt. John Browning is the designer. Samuel Colt died in 1862, which is decades before the M1911 was designed. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:09, 6 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Re your message: Colt Firearms' role in the M1911 is covered in the article extensively. See the entire History section of the article. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:28, 6 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Re your message: I think part of the problem is that they have been many different manufacturers of the M1911 throughout the years, not just Colt. You can bring up your request on the article talk page. A similar observation was discussed in 2008 without any resolution.  There are many other editors interested in the M1911, so perhaps this time a consensus can be achieved to further point out Colt in the gun's history. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 21:47, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
