This is a firearm — here's how it works
- Order online. Pay in full; we ship it from our warehouse into the shop.
- We receive it. The firearm ships to us (or your chosen FFL) — never to your door.
- DROS & the 10-day wait. California background check and the mandatory 10-day waiting period begin at the counter.
- Pick up & transfer. Bring valid ID and required documents; we complete the compliant transfer.
Description
The M 1911 GI standard is a great representation of the original US GI combat issue 1911 and is chambered in 45 ACP and built with our exacting engineering standards. Includes fixed, low profile sights and a 10-round magazine. 14-round magazines are available to purchase on the Armscor website. A durable parkerized finish gives it a tough, smooth, non-reflective surface. Also includes polymer grips. The 5" barrel offers a balanced weight to assist with the accuracy and recoil that made the original 1911 design famous. True to all Rock Island 1911s, the GI Standard comes with a crisp factory 4- to 6-pound trigger to make it a great experience right out of the box.
