The Springfield Armory 1911 Operator delivers enhanced tactical capability through its optic-ready slide design and premium materials. This full-size 45 ACP pistol combines traditional 1911 reliability with modern features demanded by serious shooters.

What Makes This Different

The Operator stands apart from standard 1911 models through its factory-milled optic cut and robust Cerakote finish. While traditional 1911s require aftermarket modifications for red dot mounting, this model arrives ready for immediate optic installation. The carbon steel slide provides superior durability compared to aluminum alternatives, maintaining tight tolerances through extended firing schedules.

Key Features

  • Factory optic cut accepts popular red dot sights without gunsmithing
  • Black Cerakote finish on slide and frame resists corrosion and wear
  • VZ G10 grips provide secure texture in wet conditions
  • Carbon steel slide construction ensures long-term accuracy
  • 8+1 capacity with included magazine
  • 5-inch match-grade barrel for maximum velocity
  • Tactical rack rear sight with tritium front sight
Range testing demonstrates consistent sub-3-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition. The extended sight radius and match trigger contribute to precision shooting capability. Law enforcement and competitive shooters appreciate the optic-ready platform for rapid target acquisition. The Cerakote finish maintains appearance through thousands of rounds and harsh environmental conditions.
