Smith and Wesson 108485 1911 E Series 45 Acp 4.25 in 8+1 Scandium Frame Satin Stainless

The Smith & Wesson 108485 1911 E-Series brings the long-standing SW1911 lineage to shooters who want a compact .45 ACP in a robust semi-auto package, combining a 4.25" satin stainless slide with a lightweight black scandium frame and a round butt laminate wood grip for balanced carry and handling; its single-action-only trigger and manual grip and thumb safeties honor John Browning's 1911 heritage while delivering the crisp trigger feel that competitive shooters and seasoned defenders rely on. With an 8+1 capacity, serrated slide, tritium night front and rear sights for low-light acquisition, and a stainless steel barrel, this pistol is well-suited for daily concealed or duty carry, range training, and close-quarters defensive roles where controllable .45 ACP performance matters. At roughly 28.8 oz unloaded and finished in satin stainless on the slide, the E-Series offers a blend of reduced weight and durability that hunters who favor a compact sidearm and law-enforcement users appreciate, and the hard case and solid construction make it a long-term addition to any collection. As part of Smith & Wesson's SW1911 family, this model reflects the brand's Pro and Performance Center DNA, and requires FFL transfer.
