They use a counter-clockwise cylinder rotation and lockwork that proved somewhat weak, as well as firing the under-powered .38 Long Colt round in military service. After these issues came to light during the Philippines War (particularly against suicidal juramentados hopped up on drugs and religious fervor) it was replaced in the US military with the Colt M1909 .45 Colt revolver and then the .45 ACP Colt M1911, and on the commercial market with the improved Colt Official Police and Colt Police Positive in .38 Special.
