Many comments here already said it's called a 'paltik', usually made in Danao, Cebu, Philippines, so I'll just add a fun fact. 1.) The term 'paltik' has been integrated into everyday speech as a common word in the different languages in the Visayas region, where Danao is easily accessible, as being "poorly made", this pertains from the fact that paltik guns have little to no quality control and the reliability vary from gunsmith to gunsmith and the type of steel used. 2.) During WW2, Danao residents started making guns for the local resistance forces against the Japanese when the Americans withdrew from the Philippines to Indonesia, and the Philippine soldiers and local militia had hold their own and needed a supply of weapons and ammo. The problem is that there has been a lack of will to fully industrialize the Philippines and remains an dominantly agricultural country, with the lack of industrialization, highly skilled smiths like the gun makers in Danao continue to have their skills under-utilized and have to resort to just continuing their backyard business to be able to feed their family.

Sometime during the 1980s, These underground Filipino gunmakers were at one time recruited by the Japanese Mafia, The Yakuza, and brought to Japan to make guns for their use. The move solved the Yakuza's problem of smuggling the guns out from the Philippines and bringing them in to Japan. Also, these Filipino made guns in Japan greatly improved due to modern machineries provided by the Yakuza for gunmaking.

Sam Colt had been dead nearly half a century when the genius who was John Moses Browning blessed the U.S. military with his iconic design, chambered in the also iconic .45 Auto. Colt was famous for black powder guns. Any Colt after 1862 was someone else's. So really, when it comes down to it, the 1911 in this video isn't a clone at all, but a forgery. It could have just as well been a Springfield forgery or an ATI forgery or a Tisas forgery. It's still true to the Browning design, although in the A1 version that appeared in 1924 while JMB was still alive and kicking.

BTW, 2 known gun manufacturers, I won't specify who, did something amusing that about a large group of the local homemade gunsmiths were employed in their factories as they have been making these illegal copies all their lives, nothing beats experienced gunsmiths.

LOL, interesting. So the Communists prefer the home-made 1911s rebranded as a capitalist Colt, but not the actual Communist-made Norinco? I had a Norinco once way back in the mid-2000s. It was a spontaneous purchase that I came to deeply regret. In my defense I was still new to firearms at the time. It was a horrible garage-built monstrosity that was just awful in every way. I paid way too much for it, and sold it at a massive loss. Lesson learned.....now I stick to either American-made 1911s, or Turkish-made 1911s. I'm contemplating my first one now in fact....either a limited-edition Colt, a mil-spec Colt, or a TISAS 1911 Government model. $1,400, $900, and about $340 respectively.

A little history for people. This may or may not be a Colt. I say this because Colt outsourced some of their manufacturing of 1911's to the Philippines to keep up with production some are unaware of this. The Philippines has been making 1911's since World War II because they were contracted by Colt to make them, and so just because it was made in the Philippines does not mean it is not an actual Colt 1911 depending upon what year it was made.

Pretty cool. I visited a few Khyber Pass "factories" in the late 90's and it was fascinating. Never have been to the philippine "factories" but I would love to check them out sometime.

that kind of gun is called "paltik" here in the Philippines, a backyard made gun and you can have it for about 12,000.00 pesos. But there are legitimate gun factories here like Armscor, SAM (ATI) and Metroarms.

About a year or maybe two years ago a group of people got arrested for manufacturing firearms. Some of them were on layoff from RIA. It was believed that they smuggled out some of the larger unfinished parts and completed them in their homes. It's hard to get any components of guns or ammunition there. In fact a permit to own or carry a firearm is next to impossible for Filipinos. So some find it easier to risk prison. I've seen a number of the weapons they've finished by hand. Sometimes the work is truly beautiful and sometimes it's horrible. I've seen engraved firearms that rival old style high end. Salamat sa paggawa ng video na ito (seemed appropriate to write in Tagalog, lol)

A factory before in Cebu Philippines that supplied unmarked firearm parts for US brands as outsource, produce the best copies (discretely & illegally) They use photo chemical etching for markings, they told me if markings is very perfect & plain it's a copy. Because original roll markings embossed the markings surface & is normally uneven. (Their parts are interchangeable with OEM 1911). Most backyard gun makers claim their gun came from that factory because it's the most sought after.

Yup! It SHOULD say "COLT'S" in script (with the Pony) NOT "Colt" on it! My Pre-1956 Colt's .38 Super Combat Commander Special (think Gold Cup) is plainly rolled "Colt's Automatic Pistol Model of 1911A Caliber Colt's .38 Super Auto". It is Class Three engraved by Grebbe of Colt's Custom Shop and has an adjustable trigger and target sights. I recently sold a .32 Long Colt Lady Colt's 5 3/8" Garter Pistol from about 1880. A lovely 5-shot Police Positive Action Revolver Grade SEVEN engraved that belonged to my neighbor across the street. She was profoundly deaf and a 17-year-old bride when she and her husband moved to wild-and-wooly Tulsey-Towne before statehood in about 1880. He got it for her and she wore it in the garter holster on her right leg under her skirts. I had it re-blued by Colt's Custom Shop a Decade ago, and sold it to a lady from Nome for nearly 6 figures. Unquestionably, the most accurate revolver I've ever shot-probably the most accurate pistol I've ever shot, including my Thompson Contender Super 14.

Couple of points: 1) No one should be copying another manufacturer's product and passing it off as authentic, i.e., unless you are Colt Arms, you can't call what you manufacture, a "Colt". 2) How well does this Philippino-made model M1911A1 shoot? Might shoot pretty well; might be a good economical handgun to own.

I'm not 100% convinced its a 4gery. 1. The gummed up top of the firing pin stop is probably from crudely using a tool to remove it (some are very tight), not from bunging up the carving when making the part as that is completely inconsistent with the rest of the gun. 2. The arc like mark inside the slide are from the end mill on a milling machine, not from hand filing the gun. 3. The checkering on the back of the slide and front of the grip portion of the frame is a common custom gunsmithing feature and often added to a gun well after it was manufactured. The presence of this feature has no bearing on the authenticity of the weapon. This is a nice feature on a modern 1911, and a travesty against the huge manatee when done on a vintage collectible. It may indeed be fake, but it wasn't made in a hut with files. As to making guns by hand - A friend does this and get about $5k each, but his idea of "by hand" is make each piece an individual work of art using tool like swiss screw machines and Japanese 5 axis mills.

BTW for your info that black grip is made of battery case. Now adays it more modern kind of manufacturing for then,they buy the reciever 70 % complete and also the slide,do some milling manufacture the small parts and its done. Then they bring the almost finish product into a marking facility,they mark ot colt,para ordnance etc,bring it again to a shop to have finish and its done. They sell the 1911 to the stockholders for 6000 php the stock holders sell it to the runners for 7500 php and the runners sell it to gun runners for 13000 to 14000 php and the final gun runners sell at around 15000 to 18000 php.

I have had a lot of 1911s. Always wanted a Colt with the pony on the slide. Finally shelled out $800 for a new Colt 1991. I was very disappointed with the Colt ,It stove piped a lot Failure to fire and feed. What I really did not like is it had a plastic grip safety and a plastic trigger. For $800 these parts should have been steel. I have a Rock Island 1911 now, all steel parts and absolutely runs GREAT! Colt is selling there name. Springfield, Remington R1 and Smith & Wesson still make a good 1911 for the price. Colt---forgetaboutit! A lot of companies made 1911 in wwll , all were as good or better then the Colt.

Back around 1990 I picked up a Colt gov model. It was a jam master. I sold it to a gunsmith and picked up a Springfield. It wasn't as bad but still not very good. I was told by a friend that 1911s had to be sent to a gunsmith to be made reliable, so that ended my relationship with the 1911 platform. However - a few weeks ago I picked up an RIA 1911. It's had about 1k rounds through it and been 100% reliable. So I bought a Tisas US Army model for just over $300. Also 100% reliable. What's wrong with these US makers?

I watched a documentary on gun smuggling into the United States. The make the forms from actual 1911 parts as dies. It’s a long process as there are one maybe three people working on the one gun. They take metal and get it really hot and then with the use of a die they can form the Metal. Grinding is also done using a die to make sure the part is as exact as possible. After the pistol is completed they go out in the forest and fire one bullet. If it works it is sold to a gun runner that sneaks them into the United States. From their it is sold on the Black Market such as gangs. Very dangerous business. The worker that makes guns can and do get killed by rivals.
