Influenced by the strains of the long going Resource Wars, the Deputy Arms .45 Automatic Pistol (DA45, Deputy Arms .45) initially began as a proposal by Deputy Arms, a pre-war arms manufacturer in the Midwest Commonwealth, to the United States Army, as a means to simplify production and procurement of the current 10mm Service sidearms during the Sino-American War. Submitted during the Gobi Campaign, service trials continued into early 2074, with the military units fielding the type finding it to be too cumbersome and inferior in performance to their current 10mm Service models.
Despite rejection by the military, Deputy Arms set their sights on the civilian market later that year. Being at heart, a functional copy of the current Service 10mm, the advantages of the DA45's many stamped parts and ease of manufacture, made it easy for citizens during a time of great inflation and strife, to acquire a reliable, albeit heavy sidearm, for an affordable price. Seeing great success in the domestic market allowed Deputy Arms pistols to find their way to the post-war New England commonwealth, both in the hands of raider and settlers alike. Though originally in 10mm, the DA45 would almost entirely be marketed in .45 commercially, with many accessories and attachments promised in the next coming years, left let down by the ensuing Great War...
