Analysis

This 10mm double-stack 1911 with a 6-inch barrel features a 4.2-pound trigger with minimal take-up and a clean break, ideal for hunting and range use. The steel frame and extended barrel reduce felt recoil, improving follow-up shot accuracy. The wraparound polymer grip offers solid ergonomics. However, its 30.4-ounce weight may hinder extended carry. Some units show minor fit inconsistencies, potentially requiring break-in for reliability. The trigger, though crisp, may feel light for some preferences. Priced affordably, it delivers robust performance but may need tuning for optimal function. It’s a practical choice for shooters seeking power and capacity, with slight quality control considerations.
