Colt’s Manufacturing 1911 CCU Rail .45 ACP Pistol, 5″ Barrel, 8-Round

Product Description

The Colt’s Manufacturing 1911 CCU Rail is a .45 ACP single-action pistol with a 5″ barrel. It holds 8 rounds and measures 8.50″ overall, so it is a full-size 1911 in the traditional mold.

The frame is stainless steel, and the slide wears a black finish. That mix gives the pistol a two-tone look. At 40 oz unloaded, it has the heft that many people like in a .45, and the weight helps tame recoil on longer range sessions. Sights are Novak front and rear, so you get a familiar sight picture right away.

Single action with a manual safety

This is a single-action-only pistol with a manual safety. The trigger does one job, and the thumb safety lets you carry it cocked and locked in the classic 1911 way. If you already know the platform, the controls will feel familiar. If you are new to it, plan some time with a qualified instructor before you carry.

This pistol fits shooters who like the 1911 layout and want a stainless frame. It works for range practice, home defense, and collecting. For gear, look at a holster made for a full-size 1911 with a 5″ barrel, spare 8-round magazines, quality .45 ACP ammunition, a cleaning kit, and eye and ear protection. A sturdy range bag keeps it all together.
