Name some "non 1911" hammer fired semi-auto pistols is .45ACP

This would have been a good deal.

Looks like they had different versions of fixed sights as the above and NL40k’s are different.

The one I have has adjustable sights, I did finally find it though...

Some had Novak sights as a factory-installed option, and they were awesome. The S&W adjustables with the wing-shields are practical, but ugly as hell.

Firestar M45

Mine was reliable, with great ergos, but only barn-door accurate. Magazines were made of pure unobtanium too.......

Heck, if you’re REALLY budget conscious, a third gen value series S&W, like a 457

You will like it. Very good at handling recoil, I carried it both on the hip OWB and in a shoulder rig. Still my night stand gun.

yes i had rented it twice at the range, i loved it, and wanted one as soon as i could. but, when that time came, so did the buying craze, so i got the CZ 97B

Nightlord40K...I have the M43 and carry the M40. With hand loads tailored to each of them I find them, not only reliable, but also very accurate. Both will hit a "small" paper plate at 45 feet. I bet that with a bit of tinkering the M45 is just as accurate.

Both e-bay and gunbroker have magazines for all three.

Here are a couple of reviews from Patrick E. Kelley from his "Out of the Box to Match" series

PX4 .45. Note he had some accuracy issues with 230 gr ammo, but the link I gave you earlier to a thread on a long term, high round count PX4 .45 ( https://pistol-forum.com/showthread...Storm-45-High-round-count-long-duration-usage ), the OP of that thread, had no issues with 230 gr ammo, and found it very accurate in his guns.



Grand Power .45. Note his comments beginning about the 9:25 mark regarding lubrication of the rotating barrel, which is probably also applicable to the PX4, though he didn't have an issue with the PX4.

A number of years ago I picked up a German P220 chambered in 45 for $500. It has never had a malfunction and is as accurate as any gun I own. Attached is a link to one on sale on Gunbroker with a buy it now price of $549.

SIG P220
FNX-45
PT-945
The old S&Ws

I was gonna say the FN 45 pistol, it's hammer fired with a polymer frame. Pretty sure it won't break the bank, here's one for $699:

What's the going price of the FNX-45 ?

Anywhere from $699 to over $1000 depending on the set up. They are all high capacity magazine, hammer fired, polymer framed pistols

And the Grand Power P45, if it is anything like the P40 10mm you will love it.
