Whether the 1911 pistol is your handgun of choice for duty gun, concealed carry, home defense or target shooting at the range, here’s your chance to win two Gun Digest books that celebrate this popular gun.
This week, one lucky winner will get the 100 Years of the 1911 Bundle – two must-have books about the 1911:
- Gun Digest Shooter’s Guide to the 1911 -This is the definitive shooter’s guide to the 1911, offering tips, tricks and techniques for getting the most out of your 1911, and real-world evaluations of more than 50 different models of the 1911.
- 1911: The First 100 Years – From predecessors of the 1911 and its contemporaries to the best of today’s semi- and -full-custom models, you’ll find it in 1911: The First 100 Years. Lavishly illustrated with photographs collected from around the world, this handsome book is a fitting centennial tribute to a pistol that is more popular than ever.
Collectors, shooters, historians – anyone interested in big-bore handguns or the evolution of this American classic – will enjoy this two-book set.
To enter the random drawing, just post a comment below telling us the primary purpose of your 1911 – concealed carry, home defense, target shooting or duty gun? Or, as always, you can just say you’d like to win the books.

Free is good. Save for ammo for my 45′s
Just getting started in the shooting arts and these books would be a great addition to my library and my education.
I use them for home defense and target shooting (and I’d love to win these books).
My Colt Lightweight Commander 1911 with a laser light is now my home defense pistol.
My Colt 21st Century Commander 1911 is my 100 year anniversary gift to myself; it’s a great shooter.

I love all 6 of my 1911s!!! 2 – 5 inch home defense with rails, 2 – 5 inch race guns and 2 – 4 inch carry guns… They are mechanical engineering masterpieces and accurate!

I have always wanted a 1911. These books could help me decide which 1911 to get.
