Colt 1911 Government 45 ACP 5" 8rd Bright Stainless Pistol

The Colt 1911 Government in 45 ACP is the definitive single-action, full-size service pistol the original John Browning design built by the company that's been making 1911s since 1911. This 1991 Series Government runs the classic 5-inch barrel with a 1:16 LH 6-groove rifling twist, a bright polished stainless steel frame and slide, and Colt's double-diamond checkered wood grips for an instantly recognizable Colt look on the belt or the bedside table.Standard controls mean standard 1911 ergonomics single-action trigger, grip safety, thumb safety, and slide stop right where decades of muscle memory expect them. Three-dot sights drift in the dovetails for simple windage tuning, the 8+1 capacity runs with any quality 45 ACP magazine, and the 35-ounce weight soaks up the push from full-power loads. At 8.5 inches overall with a 5.5-inch height and 1.25-inch width, this is a full-size 1911 that handles duty, home defense, and range work without pretending to be a carry gun. One magazine is included.
