Back in the old days, before the term "1911" became popular, we called all 1911s "Colt .45s" or just ".45s," regardless of who made them, Colt, Ithaca, Remington-Rand, etc.
Of course we were so dim-witted we even called mags clips sometimes. I've got a friend who was a Marine M-60 man who got to use his 1911 in earnest a few times. He still calls mags clips and for some reason I don't feel compelled to correct him. Safer that way.
Somehow, despite such inaccuracies, we got through the night.
