It depends on how someone defines the word better. There are a lot of 1911 loyalists and a lot of Glock loyalists. A 1911 is very reliable (except a few specific brands) and the Glock is very reliable. Assuming we're talking about a .45 ACP and not the .45 GAP cartridge, both guns fire the same bullet, so there's no difference in regards to that.
The colt 1911 fires .45ACP ammunition.
if it's the model 1911 military auto........made 1918
1911 45acp
If you mean the standard Caliber of a 1911 model colt pistol,then this was chambered in the caliber .45ACP.
The Model 1911 is a semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45ACP. The Model 1917 is a large frame revolver also chambered in .45ACP but using half-moon or full-moon clips to hold the rounds.

As far as I know, they don't make new ones, only 1911 45acp's and M1's, etc.

If the question you are asking is about a colt model 1911 semi-auto 45acp? then with that serial number your colt was a commercial model made in 1916.
