The Springfield 1911-A1 Mil-Spec 45ACP Stainless Steel delivers the exacting standards of the original U.S. military sidearm with the corrosion resistance and durability of a stainless steel build.

Overview

The springfield 1911-a1 mil-spec 45acp stainless steel is a faithful reproduction of the original M1911A1 design, updated with a stainless steel slide and frame for enhanced longevity and reduced maintenance. Chambered in .45 ACP, this pistol features a 5-inch barrel, a 7-round magazine, and a parkerized-style finish that resists wear. It operates on the proven short-recoil, locked-breech system, delivering consistent accuracy and reliable cycling with a wide range of factory ammunition. The stainless steel construction provides a distinct appearance while maintaining the heft and balance that 1911 enthusiasts expect.
