What Makes This Different
This pistol features authentic WWII military markings and specifications, including the correct parkerized manganese phosphate finish that provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard bluing. The serrated carbon steel slide offers enhanced grip during manipulation, while the beavertail grip safety design reduces hammer bite common in original wartime production models. Manufacturing tolerances meet modern standards while preserving the classic 1911 A1 profile.
