Description
When police departments approached to build them a more reliable, durable 1911 to replace the ones they had been carrying, developed a model just for them. The additions that made it ideal for law enforcement also make it perfect for home defense, so gladly offer it for sale to the public. A full-size 1911, the Specialist is chambered in .45 or 9mm and loaded with features to satisfy a public servant’s special requirements. The forged stainless steel slide wears the inverted top rib with a single amber tritium dot in the rear sight and a green lamp with white target ring in front. The frame sports an integral 1913 Picatinny, 25 LPI front strap checkering, undercut trigger guard and recessed slide stop to enable the installation of laser grips. Equipped with an ambidextrous thumb safety, extended magazine release and detachable magwell, the Specialist is operator-friendly. It is finished off with a set of G10 VZ Operator II grips that force the hand into the beavertail and hold it there. The Specialist ships with two 8rd magazines with bump pads (10rd in 9mm) and is either a matte stainless finish, which makes for an especially hardy pistol that scoffs at everyday wear and tear. The forged stainless steel slide wears the popular Clark-style serrated rib with a single amber tritium dot in the rear sight and a green lamp with white target ring in front. Commander and full-size variants.
