Charles Daly 1911 Superior .45 ACP | 5″ Barrel | 440.181

The Charles Daly 1911 Superior Grade is a full-size, steel-frame 1911 chambered in .45 ACP with a 5″ barrel and applied color case hardened finish. It ships with checkered walnut grips and two 8-round magazines; the slide and frame carry traditional 1911 controls including a manual safety and beavertail grip. For a compact red-dot option under $1,000 that pairs well with the 1911 platform, consider a micro reflex such as the Holosun 507K for faster sight acquisition while retaining backup iron sight capability.

Applications: range training and target shooting; service-style competition.
