Springfield 1911 Loaded 45ACP Stainless Steel

The Springfield 1911 Loaded 45ACP Stainless Steel represents a precise balance of classic design and modern manufacturing tolerances. Built on Springfield Armory’s forged carbon steel frame and slide, this pistol delivers the reliability expected from a duty-grade 1911 platform. The stainless steel finish provides corrosion resistance suited for Florida’s humid coastal environment, while the forged components ensure structural integrity through thousands of rounds. Each pistol is hand-fitted and test-fired before leaving the Geneseo, Illinois facility, guaranteeing consistent lockup and trigger pull out of the box.

Overview

The Springfield 1911 Loaded 45ACP Stainless Steel is a full-size, single-action semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP. It features a 5-inch match-grade barrel with a stainless steel bushing and a full-length guide rod for enhanced accuracy. The slide is fitted with dovetailed front and rear sights—a fiber optic front and a tactical rack rear with two-dot configuration. The frame includes an integral beavertail grip safety with a memory bump, an ambidextrous thumb safety, and a skeletonized aluminum trigger with an adjustable overtravel stop. The magazine well is beveled for faster reloads, and the checkered front strap and mainspring housing provide positive grip retention in wet conditions.
