As a side note, the .45 ACP adaptation came about as a wartime expedient due to the shortage of M1911 pistols. Other than this there was no advantage to the practice. While modern shooters who shoot autoloaders want the use of the same ammunition for their revolver, there is really no advantage. Revolver ammunition designed for revolvers is equal to, or superior, in performance to auto cartridges adapted to revolvers.
