Precision target shooting demands a handgun that blends traditional ergonomics with modern machining and reliable lockup. The right 1911-style pistol delivers consistent trigger breaks, controlled recoil and repeatable accuracy for slow-fire bullseye or precision plate work.
RUGER SR1911 TARGET is Ruger’s take on the classic Series 70 1911 platform, engineered for accuracy with a low-glare stainless steel frame and barrel crafted from the same bar on the same machine for matched geometry and tighter tolerances. The CNC-controlled machining produces a refined slide-to-frame fit and exceptionally smooth slide travel. Shop this product
Design and fit
The SR1911 TARGET features a bushingless stainless steel bull barrel and full-length guide rod, adding weight at the muzzle for superior recoil control. The low-glare stainless slide and frame, oversized ejection port and extended magazine release are competition-minded details that speed reloads and extraction. Specs include a 5″ barrel, overall length 8.67″, width 1.34″ and a loaded feel of roughly 40.4 oz., which stabilizes follow-up shots.
Trigger, controls and accuracy features
The lightweight aluminum skeletonized trigger includes an adjustable over-travel stop for a crisp, light pull and quick positive reset—key for tight group shooting. A skeletonized hammer and extended thumb safety/slide stop leverage faster manipulation. Positive barrel lock-up and a nitrided, ramped barrel ensure durable, repeatable lock-up for out-of-the-box accuracy. Bomar-style adjustable sights let you dial point-of-impact without gunsmithing.

Caliber choice and practical applications
This SR1911 TARGET is offered in 10MM AUTO among other calibers; 10mm delivers a flatter trajectory, higher muzzle energy and strong terminal performance for long-range precision and stout field work. The 5″ bull barrel and heft help tame 10mm recoil for controlled, repeatable strings. The pistol accepts standard aftermarket 1911 parts, and includes two stainless magazines, a swaged link pin and titanium firing pin for longevity.
