The Springfield Armory 1911 Garrison 4.25" .45 ACP Stainless seamlessly marries heritage-quality craftsmanship with contemporary ergonomics in a highly transportable Commander-length footprint. Shifting entirely away from cast steel alternatives, this defensive sidearm features a rugged, precision-forged stainless steel frame and slide treated with an attractive satin finish that showcases high polish on the flats and bead-blasted matte on the rounded surfaces. Its 4.25-inch forged stainless steel match-grade barrel is fully supported, working beautifully alongside a traditional barrel bushing layout to maximize downrange mechanical accuracy. Modern functional upgrades elevate the classic PX9418S layout, integrating a skeletonized hammer for fast lock times, an extended beavertail grip safety to combat "hammer bite," and low-profile combat 3-dot iron sights. Shipped with one 7-round single-stack steel magazine, the pistol completes its timeless heritage profile using thinline double-diamond checkered wood grips displaying the iconic Crossed Cannons emblem.
