As the show primarily uses 3D modeling, it's likely that the same 3D asset was used for all of the 1911s that appear.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA worse-for-wear Shishi-Gumi crime boss draws his M1911A1 in "To the Neon District" (S1E11).Error creating thumbnail: File missingAfter failing to chamber it with his hand due to the blood, the crime boss (somehow) manages to fully chamber the M1911A1 with his teeth, which really should be impossible, even for a lion. If one looks closely at the visible portion of the grip, it appears that the gun has a curved mainspring housing above the lanyard loop, distinguishing this as an A1 model.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA pretty nice first-person look at the standard "G.I. sights" on the gun.
SIG-Sauer P220
Louis the red deer is seen with a SIG-Sauer P220 in the beginning of the episode "To the Neon District" (S1E11). It is the early 1st generation model as evident from the uniquely shaped hammer. At different points of the scene it appears in the hammer switches from being cocked to being down and then back again. Louis continues to carry the weapon into the second season, albeit now with wooden grip panels.

The hammer is a distinct giveaway as to the generation of the gun. Also, despite Louis having fired it, the hammer appears to be uncocked (although it may just be the angle of the shot).
