Chambered in .45 ACP, this stainless-steel configuration offers a timeless interpretation of the classic 1911, featuring traditional styling, refined proportions, and the unmistakable character that has made the platform an enduring icon.

Nighthawk Custom is internationally recognized for its specialized 1911 gunsmithing, bringing meticulous attention to fit, finish, and mechanical refinement.
