The 1911 is a true American icon, and the Colt® 1911 Classic Government Model Semi-Auto Pistol brings John Browning's design to life with a few modern upgrades and a whole lot of classic appeal. Built atop a forged carbon steel frame and slide with Colt's flawless blued finish, the 1911 Classic features a Series 70 frame, upswept beavertail grip safety, and old-school 1918-pattern checkered manual thumb safety. The single-action-only trigger breaks clean at just about 3 lbs., and the Novak® lo-mount rear sight and brass bead front put your shots on target with maximum reliability. 5" carbon steel barrel, serrated mainspring housing, 25 LPI front strap checkering, and double-diamond walnut grips complete the package.
