For sale is a timeless, no-nonsense tribute to the classic U.S. GI-issue 1911 pistol, now available in like-new, in-box condition—essentially untouched and ready for the range or collection.

This full-size semi-automatic features a rugged black parkerized finish on its 4140 steel frame and slide, delivering military-grade durability with a matte, non-reflective surface that’s built to last. The 5-inch button-rifled barrel provides excellent accuracy and velocity with the powerful .45 ACP cartridge, while the iconic wood grips (checkered for enhanced grip) evoke the original design with modern comfort. Fixed GI-style sights (front blade in slot, rear dovetail) keep things simple and snag-free, and the crisp 4-6 lb factory trigger pull ensures a smooth, reliable shooting experience right out of the box.

Key highlights include:

  Caliber: .45 ACP

  Capacity: 8+1 rounds (includes one magazine)

  Action: Single-action, Series 70-style (no firing pin block for authentic feel)

  Overall Length: Approximately 8.54 inches

  Weight: Around 2.47 lbs (unloaded)

  Additional features: Beavertail grip safety, extended thumb safety, serrated slide for positive manipulation, and 100% parts compatibility with traditional 1911 components.

This pistol shows virtually no signs of use, retaining its factory fresh appearance with sharp markings, pristine parkerizing, and clean checkered wood grips marked “U.S.” It’s perfect for shooters seeking an affordable, reliable 1911 platform that’s proven itself for generations—whether for target shooting, home defense, or as a solid entry into classic 1911 ownership.

Condition: Like New in Box (LNIB)
