Features & Specs
Each pistol is a standard-production Springfield 1911-A1, chambered in .45 ACP, with a 5-inch barrel and traditional single-action trigger. Because these are trade-ins, finish and grip condition vary, but all retain functional integrity. Key characteristics include:
- Forged carbon steel slide and frame with original Parkerized finish (showing wear, holster rubs, and occasional surface oxidation)
- Standard GI-style sights, serrated trigger, and arched mainspring housing
- 7-round steel magazine included with each pistol; some magazines may show finish loss or minor dings
These springfield 1911-a1 45 acp police trade-ins (fair condition) may exhibit worn grips, minor pitting under the finish, or faded markings. They are not safe queens. They are working guns sold as-is with no cosmetic guarantees.
