Colt, 1911C Government, .45 ACP, 5 inch, 8 Round, Stainless Slide Blued Frame

The Colt 1911C Government Handgun .45 ACP presents the classic 1911 platform in a two-tone finish with a 5-inch barrel and traditional government-size frame, delivering the balance and pointability that shooters expect from Colt's storied series; chambered in .45 ACP with an 8-round capacity, this semi-auto pistol is built for range work, duty carry, home defense, and competitive shooting where the 1911's single-action trigger and crisp reset give an edge on follow-up shots. The stainless slide paired with a blued frame offers corrosion resistance up front while retaining a subdued, tactical look, and the forged steel construction, beavertail safety, and extended sights support durability and consistent sight picture under stress. As a Handguns, Semi Auto Pistols category firearm, it follows traditional ergonomics—thumb safety, grip safety, and a full-length slide serration pattern for positive manipulation—making it intuitive for experienced shooters and approachable for those transitioning to single-action platforms. Note that this is a firearm and FFL required (FFL: Yes), and the 1911C's heritage and practical features make it a sought-after option for collectors and practical shooters who want a heritage design with modern reliability.
