Springfield 1911-A1 45 ACP Police Trade-Ins (Fair Condition)

Overview

These Springfield 1911-A1 45 ACP Police Trade-Ins (Fair Condition) are exactly what they sound like: retired duty sidearms from law enforcement agencies across the country. These pistols have been carried, holstered, and used on the job, which means honest wear on the finish, holster rubs, and some handling marks. But mechanically, each gun has been inspected for function and safety. If you are looking for a working-class 1911 without the premium price tag of a new gun, these police trade-ins are a solid bet. They are not safe queens. They are tools that have been used, and they are ready to go back to work for you.

• Original Springfield Armory 1911-A1 frame and slide
• 45 ACP caliber with standard 7-round magazine capacity
• Fair condition with visible holster wear, finish loss, and minor dings

Features & Specs

These Springfield 1911-A1 45 ACP Police Trade-Ins (Fair Condition) are built on the classic government-size platform. The barrel is 5 inches, the action is single-action only, and the sights are the standard military-style blade front and notch rear. The frame is forged carbon steel with a parkerized finish that has seen better days, but the internals remain serviceable. Each gun ships with one magazine, and the thumb safety, grip safety, and slide stop function as intended. These are not reconditioned or refinished guns. They are sold as-is with functional wear.

• 5-inch barrel, single-action trigger with crisp break
• Parkerized finish with honest wear and patina
• Includes one 7-round magazine (may show wear)
