The .45 Cal Pistol is the most common firearm in Condemned: Criminal Origins. All of its stats are average, making it a well-rounded weapon for most situations. It is based on the real-life Colt M1911 pistol and is Ethan's starting weapon, before being taken by SKX later on during the first level. At the end of the game, when Ethan must decide whether or not to kill Leland Vanhorn, Ethan will be holding the .45 Cal Pistol. In Condemned 2, it is replaced by the 9mm Pistol.
