1911A1 .45 Pistol from 1925 in Slow-Mo! 

One thing I really like about you and Hickok45 is not only the fantastic shooting, but the in depth firearms history you guys can go in to from time to time. Thanks for sharing.

"I'm gonna slow down just a little bit" Still did it faster than any normal human being.

Your daughter and son in law have do an AMAZING job with the slow motion editing and camera angles. Especially at 7:15 with the view over the breach where you can see it unlock and extract the brass and eject soo cool. Almost hard to believe John browning designed all this without today's technology

The old 1911's were cool. Remember back in the day when I was in the Navy, I carried one as a side arm doing roving patrol on board my ship. Thanks for bringing out an old one and showing us it's still a great gun!

What i find remarkable is that a mechanical action can load, fire, extract, eject in less than .16 of a second and not malfunction. That's quite the testament to the design.

This man has to be one of the most knowledgeable and fascinating people to ever grace firearm enthusiasm and is a valuable asset to have in this community. Thank you Jerry for the great videos and wonderful wealth of information.

7:13 wow I finally can understand how the 1911 works in action now. Thank you so much for illustrating this.

The guys back in 1925 would have thought Jerry's model was fully automatic .. 😂😂

Him shooting is like watching art in motion. He’s such a artist with a weapon.

Colt 1911 45ACP...How can you NOT love it!?!?

Awesome high speed footage of the 45acp rd in action

1st string; 7 shots in one second. AND, he corrected the shots to bring them up and closer to center mass. F’ me, that’s astounding to be able to:one perceive the impacts and; two to be able to make accurate mid stream corrections. Skill and talent beyond belief!

Darn, These are about the best gun slow-mo's I have ever seen !!! Wow

Jerry M is one of ,if the THE most knowledgeable shooters on the scene today ANYWHERE!!

Gotta love the engineering from back then. I still have my great-grandfather's 1911 from 1913 and it still shoots great, over 100 years later!

Such a beautiful weapon. I love 1911's

its one of the greatest handguns ever made

nothing beats the view of an old man holding a 1911!

love to see the good old 1911 in action and in the hands of a master

This just goes to show us how reliable those pistols were and are today. As fast as Jerry is even he couldn't outrun the gun, no malfunctions. The pistol just works.

Thank You, Jerry! As the Owner of a 1928 made 1911 and a couple 1911a1s. this video was very informative.

Thank you Mr. Miculek for you generosity. I value your lessons and I practice them.

two legends in one vid ! ^^

Why do I still carry the 104-year-old designed John Browning .45 ACP 1911 pistol? Because it's still very much relevant today. ;)

In my mind there's nothing better then a M1911A1 even when it's 90 years old

Thanks Jerry - I love your contribution in all the shooting sports and education you are involved in! Your humor is a very welcome change from the masses! Thank you!

Always learn something when watching your videos, and I agree"the longer the better"

Always educational, always fun, always the best! Thanks, Jerry!

Every time JM grabs a firearm, magical things happen. Thank you, sir, for this excellent and highly inspirational video.

Love the high speed cam shots it's amazing how the rounds fragment on impact of that steel

Jerry is the man.been watching his vids and i am convinced that shaking hands with him would be like shaking hands with a vice.there is alot of grip and forearm strength.think i will start working on mine.

Amazing slow-mo footage!

My dad was an FBI Special Agent and firearms instructor in the 1940’s and the 1950’s; fundamentally, this was the way I first learned to shoot handguns (principally K and N Frame S&W revolvers, but also 1911A1s and a Browning/Colt 1903/1908 “hammerless” in .380 ACP). It worked. While I wouldn’t replace contemporary stances with dominant-hand point shooting, Im quite certain one could defend innocents rather effectively with “old school” firearms and techniques. The one area that (imho) has shown tremendous improvement is ammunition technology; every component of the cartridge has been significantly improved in the last near-100 years. Perhaps the best illustration is comparing current top-tier projectiles with their (say World War II era) ball ammunition predecessors.

Your high speed studies help a lot to understand function of a firearm and recoil. Thanks. You got a new subscriber.

These videos are getting better and better! Keep up the good work!

Been watching your channel for a while Jerry. Became a fan after watching you shoot at Bisley England in the 1980s. First pistol I bought was a Colt .45 ACP Series 70. I loved that gun. The last was a HK USP in .45 also... Then the government in Britain disarmed us. How I miss shooting pistols.

Excellent slow motion shots, his Finger is actually faster than full auto AK-47, the man is Amazing, him his Daughter Melena, and his Wife, could take on a full Squad of Army Soldiers face to face, he’s just Lethal. Keep up the awesome work Jerry, your true Patriot. 💪🏼🇺🇸💪🏼

"surprisingly good results" yes, because he's a total badass with any kind of gun

Hey Jerry, YOU ARE MY HORO!!! ❤️🤍💙 I have one of the largest collectors in Arizona, if you ever need a weapon that you would like to use or need for a video?? Please contact me!!! My Grandfather introduced me to you when I was a young man & I will never forget that day!! I remember watching you break the world record w/ a revolver!!! I couldn’t believe it but my grandfather said if anyone could do it you could!! You are great mentor to everyonrone in the gun world & many to come!! you are the Michael Jordan of the gun industry!!! Thanks again because my passion is your passion but I don’t shoot like you do, I’ve tried & just don’t have it!! for anyone who wants to become a great shooter I highly recommend watching this gentleman because he is the superman and one of the greatest advocates in the gun industry!!! I also own a ballistics company and if you ever need custom ammunition also let me know and I’ll send it to you!! I asked for nothing in return because your content & everything you’ve done for this industry is priceless!! I think you and so does my grandfather if he was here today!!! Thx JC™

I always love the slow motion video. You can really see exactly how the force of the slide reaching the end of it's rearward cycle affects the extension of the arms (especially 1 handed). It just shows how quickly Miculek is able to reestablish sight alignment and sight picture.

Wow! Great shooting as always. I have a 1911 made in 1913. I also have a Jim Clark built Ruger PPC 38 Special with a Mascot II rib I used in PPC matches in the old days.

What an immense talent this man has. Absolutely outstanding.

Funny I have never been bit by the old style hammer of a 1911. One of my 1911's does have a beavertail. That high speed footage is the best 1911 functioning filming I have ever seen! Than you.

Nothing beats training. Thank you, your videos are a trusted form of refrince.

That’s a beautiful piece. I’d love to own one. Thanks for sharing, Jerry.

Hey Jerry my grandson says your his new official hero. He seen you shoot and said "oh wow man"! Thanks.

Mr Jerry remarkable shooting. Fantastic speed and accuracy.

I love your videos Jerry. SO fun and informative!

Some great 1911 and ammo history there Jerry!

What a terrific firearm! So much history behind it. Really enjoyed the slow mo video 👍

camera work and editing is really improving, really shined in this video, keep it up!

It is very pleasing to hear a true well mannered gentleman speak. GreatJob!

You're father in law told you not to buy a Govt. model for 11 dollars? Did he tell you that before or after he told you to stay away from his daughter?

Love your videos Jerry Thank You for all that you do !

First of all, you are an amazing shooter. Second, that high-speed footage is AWESOME!

Great vid Jerry AS USUAL !!!!! Please keep them coming !!!

Hello, from across the pond! I could listen to this gentleman all day long!

Even though this was years ago, amazing high speed camera work. 👍 I always liked the 1911, and high speed cameras🙂

This is probably my favorite video. Great history!

They should put Jerry on the 1 dollar bill.....

Jerry, I know I'm watching this video 4 years after you made it. But what's strange is, I just saw that army video last night. And then I watched you with little portions of that same video. I was very much thinking what you were, things have really changed. I train 3 gun, and do pretty well. So you could imagine how I felt when I saw that World War II video. Anyway, just strange, 4 years can I get the answer from you. I learn so much from you. Thank you Jerry.

pretty neat watching those slugs flying out the barrel to target. great vid, great info, great delivery. God bless Jerry

The Two Military 1911A1's I have were sold through the DCM in 1961 for a whopping $12.50 + Shipping... I still have the Paperwork. Boy, how times have changed.

Excellent video! Very nice 1911 with a some great history to it.

that background music and the slowmo is epic!!

Another great video Jerry. Keep em comin

Good video, what a beautiful classic gun. Looks like a lot of fun.

The Colt Government model is still the best looking semiautomatic handgun made. It feels like JMB designed it just for me. So smooth and nice to shoot. Very pleasant shooting .45acp from a Go we meant model. That’s a beauty you got there, Jerry.

Beautiful 1925 Colt Government! Thanks for sharing Jerry! Jim Clark Jr. Miss those Clark customs. Still have my 1911 heavy ribbed long slide with tiger toothed stippling from Clark!

Finest handgun ever manufactured !! Absolutely amazing to shoot and maintain and of all 11 models that I own , have never had a "hang up", NEVER !!!

Awesome video. Thanks for the little history lesson too. The 1911 has always been a sexy gun.

Every time, I'd never be that guy, I think whomever it is; is screwed. Awesome shots and lessons, as always.

That slow speed camera is really cool!

Jerry, you are surely the best pistol-handle-shooter.

Love watching this man shoot. Keep it up 👍

‘Lightweight and compactness’ ..lol. I love it!

Such a great guy. And real love for the sport. Thank you

top view in slow mo is GREATTTT! keep doing it!.... ive actually watched this same oldschool army handgun course not to long ago, was pretty interesting to see their technique...."what not to do" haha

Thanks for this ride in your Time Machine, Jerry!

Love the video and love your pistol control in slow mo

Love it Jerry! Thanks for all the info

no need to measure your time Jerry, you are always the fastest, I love watching you shooting, me a total ipsc rookie from Austria.

Good guns and range. More power to your show...

Always a pleasure to watch you shoot...

Excellent!! Thank you for posting.

thank you for the videos so cool. I learn every time I watch

My fathers Colt 1911 is one of my favorite pieces to shoot. SUPER FUN GUNS!

With the sights on a 1911 military pointing may be as good. That said 1911 is the only firearm I have been able to point shoot at any reasonable distance. Mr. Browning . . . Yet another success!!

"...for both defensive and offensive close quarter man to man combat fighting."

6/19 and good ol’ Jerry is still goin/shootin strong and has yet to put out a bad video!

Awesome video. I can’t believe you shot a 100 year old 1911! I love all of my 1911’s!!!

Love the vintage stuff!!

Jerry. Thanks for showing this . I learned the old rex appplegate stance while reading about jeff cooper .

Watching towards the end in his reloading room it took me a full minute before I noticed his shelves with all those bullets. Wow!

As always Excellent shooting Mr. Jerry 😎👍

Thanks Jerry great video and great shooting.

I enjoyed this video. Thank you, keep them coming.....

You sir are without a doubt. "The Man"

Great video ! Thank you Jerry.

I had to watch it a second time because of how fast he shot, great video by the way thanks
