Probably one of the products of this company:
http://www.springfield-armory.com/

Which might or might not mean a 1911-pattern pistol.  Originally 
Springfield manufactured a clone of the 1911, produced partially in 
Brazil IIRC, but now they make other models in addition to the 1911 that 
come in .45ACP.

For the most part you will only find "real" 1911's in the hands of 
collectors, since they will be nearing 100 years old and have become 
valuable.  The military transitioned to the 1911A1 at some point in time 
but again those have enough value to be mostly in the hands of 
collectors.  There are of course plenty of commercial versions of the 
1911 pattern available on the market, more companies are producing them 
now than ever before.
