The Colt Model 1900 was a self-loading semi-automatic .38 caliber handgun introduced by Colt at the turn of the 20th century. It also marked the introduction of .38 ACP the round for which it is chambered (not to be confused with the smaller .380 ACP).It was developed from John M. Browning’s earlier prototypes in the late 1890s. The United States military tested the design against other semiautomatic pistols by European makers and adopted some versions for trial use.
