Design and Historic Engraving
The Iwo Jima 1911 is custom engraved by Outlaw Ordnance with detailed left-side battle scenes and the action name Operation Detachment. Wood grips carry Admiral Chester Nimitz’s quote—“Among the men who fought on Iwo Jima uncommon valor was a common virtue”—alongside the iconic flag-raising on Mount Suribachi. The right side shows battle scenes, dates of the operation, and an advancing American flag; the grip also depicts an eagle and anchor. The finish is Cerakote OD Green with a distressed Copper accent for a field-worn, museum-ready look.
