I believe the p1 had an alloy frame instead of steel?
Ive always wondered how u.s. pistols are named, or instance we go from the 1911 to the m9 and m11, and skip all the other guns. the carbines are accounted for. The rifles are m1, m14, m16, skipping abunch. sniper rifles are all over, m40, m21, m24. I wonder who names these

From a google search:
"In the case of the M-16 rifle, Armalite manufactured 14 firearms prior to their AR-15; thus, when the military adapted it, they added military modifications to it, making it different from the AR-15, therefore it was a 16th AR type firearm. Model (M stands for Military Model) 16"
