Handguns Descriptions

Colt 1911 O4691

This competition ready 45 ACP (also available in .38 Super & Carry Model) comes with a 3 hole aluminum trigger, S&A grip safety, custom tuned action, polished feed ramp, throated barrel, flared ejection port, enhanced hammer, two 8-round magazines with bumpers, extended thumb safety, Bomar rear and Heinie dovetail front sight, and S&A magazine guide. Fully accurized and shipped with a certified target attesting to its exceptional precision. TheĀ 1911 is a single action, semi-automatic, magazine fed, recoil operated pistol chambered for the potent .45ACP cartridge. It had previously served as the standard issue sidearm for the United States Armed Forces from 1911 through 1986. As a hybrid, the Colt 1991 is a direct descendant of the U.S. military M1911 and similarly shares several of the same characteristics such as a long trigger, flat mainspring housing and recoil spring system. Upgrades from the original Mil-Spec pistol include 3- dot white sights, modified grip safety and ejection port. When the gun was first introduced back in the year 1991, Colt recognized that the market was already awash in custom 1911 pistols. For the discerning shooter looking for a high quality Mil-Spec style 1911, there were not many good options. The Colt Model 1991 was therefore conceived to remain true to its roots and reasonably faithful to the original design.

Glock 22 Gen 4

The GLOCK 22 Gen4, in .40, introduces revolutionary design changes to this model of perfection that the majority of law enforcement across the country put their trust in every day. The Modular Back Strap design of the G22 Gen4 lets you instantly customize its grip to adapt to an individual shooter's hand size. The surface of the frame employs the new scientifically designed, real-world-tested, Gen4 rough textured technology. Internally, the new GLOCK dual recoil spring assembly substantially increases the life of the system. A reversible enlarged magazine catch, changeable in seconds, accommodates left or right-handed operators. The G22 Gen4 .40 caliber retains the GLOCK accessory rail for your attachments.
