Colt 1911 Classic Government .45 ACP 5″ Stainless O1911C-SS

The Colt 1911 Classic Government is a full-size, single-action semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP with a 5-inch National Match barrel and stainless-steel construction. It pairs traditional 1911 ergonomics and double-diamond rosewood grips with fixed white-dot sights for straightforward sighting. For shooters who plan to mount a red-dot, a Vortex Venom (or similar sub-$1,000 micro reflex) is a practical optic choice that keeps the pistol’s classic profile while improving rapid target acquisition.
