The Sig Sauer 1911XR-45-SS delivers enhanced tactical capabilities with modern upgrades to the classic 1911 platform. This full-size .45 ACP pistol combines traditional reliability with contemporary features including optic-ready capability and integrated rail system.
What Makes This Different
The 1911XR-45-SS stands apart from standard 1911 pistols through its optic-ready slide machining and integrated Picatinny rail system. While traditional 1911s require aftermarket modifications for optics mounting, this model comes factory-prepared for red dot sights. The stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel frames, extending service life in demanding environments.
Key Features
- Optic-ready slide with pre-cut mounting surface for popular red dot sights
- Full-length Picatinny rail for tactical lights and laser attachments
- Premium stainless steel slide and frame construction
- Extended beavertail grip safety for enhanced control and comfort
- Serrated slide surfaces for improved grip during manipulation
- 8+1 round capacity with .45 ACP chambering
- 5-inch barrel length for maximum velocity and accuracy potential
The 5-inch barrel configuration maximizes .45 ACP ballistic performance while maintaining the proven 1911 single-action trigger system. Competition shooters benefit from the consistent trigger pull and inherent accuracy of the platform. Law enforcement and civilian defense applications leverage the stopping power of .45 ACP combined with the reliability of the 1911 action. The stainless steel construction resists environmental corrosion during extended carry or storage.
