The Rock Island M1911 GI Standard is a faithful homage to the original US GI combat issue 1911, meticulously engineered for those who appreciate precision and reliability. Chambered in the versatile 9mm caliber, this firearm embodies both tradition and modern functionality.
Designed with fixed low-profile sights, this pistol ensures an unobtrusive draw from your holster while maintaining readiness. Its traditional smooth and slim design complements quick handling—a nod to its storied past on battlefields where speed was of the essence.
A durable parkerized finish coats this weapon, providing a tough yet smooth non-reflective surface that stands up against wear while minimizing visibility—a crucial feature for any tactical situation. The inclusion of black textured rubber grips ensures a firm hold under various conditions.
The hallmark of any true M1911 is its balance between weight and performance, achieved here through a well-proportioned 5-inch barrel. This length offers an ideal distribution to manage recoil effectively without compromising accuracy—principles that have made the original design legendary among firearms enthusiasts.
True to all Rock Island armaments, the GI Standard boasts a crisp factory trigger pull ranging from four to six pounds, ensuring an exceptional shooting experience right out of the box. Coupled with its double stack magazine offering a capacity of ten plus one rounds in reserve, it blends firepower with finesse seamlessly.
