The 1911 platform remains a benchmark for ergonomics, trigger feel, and single-action reliability. For buyers seeking a near-new example with distinctive aesthetics and a ready-to-go accessory package, this pre-owned offering delivers both form and function in a serviceable, collectible-ready package.

CITADEL M-1911

The CITADEL M-1911 arriving in EXCELLENT, like-new condition is chambered in .45 ACP — a cartridge prized for reliable stopping power, consistent feeding, and simple recoil management in a full-size frame. This example shows virtually no use: no rust, pitting, or visible scratches on frame or grips, a smooth clean bore, and only a light rub at the ejection port. At a listed price of $799.99, it pairs collectible cosmetics with practical readiness.

Key features and build quality

Built on a steel frame with a stainless 5″ barrel (1:16″ twist), the CITADEL M-1911 offers the heft and balance shooters expect from the platform. The skeletonized trigger and single-action operation deliver a crisp break and predictable reset. The ambidextrous thumb and grip safeties make it adaptable for right- or left-hand manipulation. Finish is Flag Cerakote across the slide and frame, providing durable corrosion resistance and visually striking wear resistance.

Package contents and tactical utility

This pistol ships with two 8-round magazines, two sets of grips (black G10 and brown checkered wood), and a matching Cerakoted ammo can with foam fitted for the gun, magazines, and accessories. The foam-fitted ammo can is a practical carry and storage solution that complements the pistol’s presentation; it’s useful for transport, range sessions, or secure storage.

Performance considerations

.45 ACP in a 5″ barrel provides reliable velocity for defensive loads while remaining controllable due to the pistol’s 36.8 oz weight. The stainless barrel and excellent bore condition support consistent accuracy and straightforward maintenance. With standard 8-round magazines and familiar 1911 controls, the platform is well-suited for range work, home defense, or as a part of a classic-1911 collection.

What to inspect on delivery

Verify the serial number (CIT079037), check the ambidextrous safeties, ensure magazines lock up and feed, and confirm the bore and crown are free of obstruction. The listed condition notes (EXCELLENT metal, grips, and bore) suggest minimal immediate maintenance beyond typical lubrication and a function check.
