Citadel CITC45FUSAAC 1911-A1 .45 ACP | 5″ Barrel

The Citadel CITC45FUSAAC is a full-size 1911-A1 pattern pistol chambered in .45 ACP with a 5″ barrel and an American Flag Cerakote finish. It uses a Series 70 firing system and features black G10 grips, a serrated steel slide, and an extended beavertail grip safety. For a sighting solution under $1,000 that pairs well with this platform, consider a compact pistol red dot such as the Trijicon RMR; its footprint and ruggedness complement a 1911 slide-cut or mounting plate setup.

Applications for this pistol include precision target and competitive range shooting as well as informed collection or carry for those who favor traditional 1911 ergonomics.
