The standard caliber is .45 acp. That is a short fat pistol caliber that fires a 230 grain bullet at about 800 feet per second velocity. Lighter bullets down to about 185 grains are available, and they travel faster, possibly as high as 1100 f.p.s. The model 1911 pistol is a semi-automatic, not to be confused with an equally famous revolver made by Colt, often chambered in what is also called .45 caliber, but that model 1873 revolver would use the .45 Colt or .45 Long Colt cartridge, which is a rimmed revolver round, much longer in size that the .45 acp, and firing a heaver bullet at similar velocity.
