This design looks to be far superior to the 1911.
Quote:
Because of a lower bore axis, lighter slide, and locked breech, the Remington 53 boasted much less felt recoil than the M1911. This fact was attested to by noted firearms expert Julian Hatcher.[6] The Remington pistol was also more accurate, lighter, and had fewer moving parts than the 1911.
