The carbon steel slide, sear and disconnector are precision machined from solid bar stock and proper heat treated to give you thousands of rounds of long life and durability. Arguably, the most famous and widely recognized and respected handgun in the world, the 1911 is combat proven. This example from Auto-Ordnance will be well suited to any task you ask of it, from professional duty weapon to competition or personal defense and concealed carry.
The Iwo Jima Special Edition from Auto Ordnance features a laser engraved custom slide with battle scenes and Operation Detachment.
