Czarist , later Soviet Russia. there is some evidence ex-Bank Robber Joe Stalin was intimately involved in the execution of the St.petersburg Massacre-but he was not on the immediate scene. NKVD Lieutenant Jacob Yurovsky commanded the infamous (Death Squad) by one account the lieutenant himself started the shooting with a slick black .45 Automatic- made in USA and (Lend-Leased) to then Czarist Russia for military and Police usage- but not in that matter! accounts differ but between 43,000 and 48,000 M-l9ll Colt .45ACP automatic pistols were delivered to Czarist Russia before the revolution and these were intended, as is mentioned above for military and police usage and such things as tank troopers, armored car drivers, and others who needed a compact, hard-hitting weapon. sadly at least one .45ACp was used ont he fateful night. Years ago Gun Digest magazine did an article about Colts made for issue to foreign allies- including Great Britain (manyh marked to the RAF for airman usage) and also Russia. British .5"s were a slightly different caliber- .455 with wide rims, would not interchange with US .45 shells.
