AUTO ORDNANCE 1911-A1 OLD GLORY .45

Specifications

Pros

• Stainless steel frame and slide provide a solid foundation for the 1911-A1 platform.
• Checkered frontstrap adds a more secure grip surface.
• 5-inch barrel matches the classic 1911-A1 profile.
• Night sights support low-light aiming.
• Burnt Bronze and Black Distressed Cerakote finish gives it a distinctive look.
• Includes one 7-round stainless steel magazine.

Considerations & Trade-offs

• Chambered in .45 ACP, so it’s a full-power 1911 setup that may be more than some shooters want for casual range use or extended sessions.
• The included magazine is 7-round capacity, which reflects the traditional 1911 format but offers limited onboard capacity compared with higher-capacity handguns.
• The Burnt Bronze and Black Distressed Cerakote finish and engraved grips give it a distinct presentation, but that styling may not suit buyers looking for a more understated working pistol.
• It includes one magazine, so additional magazines would need to be sourced separately if you want more than the factory setup.
