RIA M1911-A2 GI | .45 ACP | 5″ | 10+1 | 51453-MA

The Rock Island Armory M1911-A2 GI is a full-size single-action 1911-style pistol chambered for .45 ACP with a 5″ barrel and a 10+1 Massachusetts-compliant magazine configuration. It ships with fixed, low-profile sights, a serrated slide and a black parkerized finish intended to reduce glare. This model is presented as a service-style 1911 that reproduces the classic profile and controls of the original GI 1911.

For optics, a compact pistol red dot such as a Holosun 507C (compact reflex sight priced under $1,000) pairs well for target acquisition on a full-size 1911 while preserving sight radius with the factory low-profile sights. Typical uses for this pistol include precision range practice and classic-style target competition or historical shooting events.
