When I was about 14 years old I shot my grandfather’s Browning 1911 45 ACP. Our Grandfather was living with us at that time. He was out and about and I took his 1911 out of his bedroom drawer and shot one round into the woods by our house.
When my grandfather passed away in 1980 I inherited the 1911 and shot the remaining rounds that were left in the magazine plus a bunch of new ones I purchased.
My grandfather kept the 1911 after serving in World War One. The 1911 was made in 1914 and I suspect the rounds dated back to at least 1918 or 1919 and they fired fine.
Sadly, I hocked the handgun for $500.00 just to pay the rent. I was in college at the time and needed the money. I never got the gun out of hock. Sure wish I had found another way to have raised money at that time.
Point being………. The rounds in that gun were quite old and functioned with no issues.
