The 1911 GI Entry is a commendable introduction to the storied lineage of the Model 1911. This firearm stays true to its roots, providing a traditional smooth and slim design that facilitates rapid deployment from holsters. Its fixed low-profile sights are both practical and efficient for quick target acquisition.
Constructed with a parkerized finish, this pistol bears a rugged yet refined non-reflective surface, ensuring durability without sacrificing stealth. The rubber grips enhance comfort while maintaining an intuitive hold, making it suitable for shooters of various experience levels.
A hallmark feature of this model is its factory-set trigger pull ranging from four to six pounds—delivering crisp performance straight out of the box. With its balanced weight distribution courtesy of the five-inch barrel, users will find their shots steady and recoil manageable—a testament to what made the original 1911 so esteemed.
This iteration in .45 ACP embodies everything one expects in a Rock Island Armory 1911: reliability, precision, and heritage distilled into each round fired. Whether you're new to firearms or adding another piece to your collection, the GI Entry stands ready as both an entry-level option and an enduring classic.
