The COLT'S MANUFACTURING 1911 Lightweight Commander OR Pistol in .45 ACP combines two of the most practical innovations in the 1911 lineup into a single compelling package, pairing the significant weight reduction of the alloy frame with a factory-milled slide that accepts today's most popular miniature red dot optics for a carry pistol that is both lighter on the hip and faster on target.
The deep blued steel slide contrasts beautifully with the lighter alloy frame while the optics-ready milling keeps the overall profile clean and snag-free, producing a pistol that is as elegant in appearance as it is capable in application. The 4.25-inch barrel and .45 ACP chambering deliver the ideal balance of concealable dimensions and serious stopping power, while Colt's single-action trigger, beavertail grip safety, and extended thumb safety preserve the intuitive and proven manual of arms that has made the 1911 America's most trusted defensive pistol for over a century.
