Auto-Ordnance 1911TCAC17 Texas Ranger | .45 ACP 5″ 7+1

The Auto-Ordnance 1911TCAC17 Texas Ranger Special Edition is a limited-edition 1911-style semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP. It is constructed in stainless steel with gold plated PVD accents and includes an adjustable trigger, a skeletonized hammer, and a beavertail grip safety. Only 25 examples were produced, making this model of particular interest to collectors and commemorative display. For practical sighting while retaining period-correct ergonomics, a compact red-dot optic such as the Trijicon RMR Type 2 pairs well and is priced under $1000.
