Ghost Recon
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon is a critically acclaimed first-person tactical shooter video game. It was developed by Red Storm Entertainment, and published by Ubisoft in 2001 for the PC and later ported to the PS2 and Xbox. The game follows a fictional U.S. special forces squad called the "Ghosts" who are tasked to stop the Russian Ultranationalists. The game takes place in 2008.
The game has spawned two expansions, Desert Siege and Island Thunder, both adding new missions, characters and weapons.

Several Russian officers and technicians are armed with nickel M1911A1 pistols. This weapon is not usable by the player.
