Been making 1911's for a looong time. All the production during the world wars plus commercial, plus the copies made in south america. I 'm sticking with the 1911 by a hair.

I have no idea, but, I'd bet AKs....every Commie country and enemy of the west had millions of them.

Of the two, I'm guessing 1911

Boy, i would love to know the answer. I'm going to guess the AR has sold more, just because the military probably buys alot more rifles than pistols.

I think the 1911 would be the leader due to longevity. There are a bunch of them around.

Byron and i have been tossing this around for the last couple of days so he told me to post it here

we both dug in on the opposite sides of the fence

last night we had pizza and beer at my house and watched the (election as it were) results roll in. Yea its cold and snowy here!

to know an exact number on thoes two guns would be staggering

No doubt.........the AR. While the 1911 has been made since 1911, there were only a few million made up until the seventies or so.

AR's are made for not only our military but many foreign countries as well.

Most everyone I know has an AR. Only a few have 1911's. Most 1911's are in the hands of gun savvy shootists.-----------------Sixgun

Up until the 1980's I would have voted for the 1911 but I believe the AR has surpassed it by now, world wide.

Thanks to Clinton and Obama.

They've done more for gun ownership than they can imagine.

I'll go 1911. You know the Chinese (norinco) made a copy of the 1911. They are no longer imported to america, but they sell lots of them in other places like asia and the old russian countries.
