Design & Construction

The fitted frame, slide and barrel machined from solid billet bar-stock set this 1911 apart from many cast alternatives. CNC machining improves lock-up consistency and slide-to-frame fit, which translates to repeatable accuracy and tighter group potential. The HD chrome-plated 5″ target-crowned barrel resists corrosion and offers a smooth feed path; the 1:16 twist is optimized for standard 1911 bullet weights to stabilize typical 230–185 grain bullets used for defensive or range work.

Controls and Reliability Features

Positive barrel lock-up and a bar-tock power extractor enhance extraction and ejection reliability. Extended combat thumb safety and enlarged slide serrations provide secure manipulation with gloved or wet hands. The beveled magazine well speeds reloads and complements the single included magazine for an out-of-the-box range-ready package. View product details and pricing here.

Performance & Handling

At 39.05 oz, the all-steel build gives the pistol deliberate recoil characteristics that many shooters prefer for follow-up shot control. The target crown and precise barrel-to-slide fit make it well-suited for accuracy-focused training, competition sprints, or service-style drills. Red cocobolo grips add tactile purchase and a classic aesthetic without compromising control.

Buyers’ Notes

Priced at $1,110.99, this 1911 targets buyers who want precision machining and steel durability typical of higher-end Freedom Series pistols without aftermarket conversions.
