Great Lakes GL1911DS9FSSSRK | 1911 DS Synergy 9mm | 5″ Barrel

The Great Lakes Synergy GL1911DS9FSSSRK is a double-stack 1911-style semi-automatic chambered in 9mm Luger with a 5-inch barrel and a Shield/RMSc optic cut for small red dots. For an optic that fits the RMSc footprint and stays well under $1,000, consider a Shield RMSc-compatible red dot. The pistol pairs a stainless-steel frame and 416 stainless slide with an injection-molded polymer grip and fiber-optic front sight, making it suitable for range training and competition where optic compatibility and consistent ergonomics are important.
