COLT Combat Commander | .45 ACP | 4.25 in | O4940XE

The Colt Combat Commander is a compact 1911-platform semi-automatic pistol built on a carbon steel frame with classic blued finishes and G10 checkered Black Cherry grips. It features a 4.25-inch barrel, Novak fixed sights, and a single-action, hammer-fired trigger for a familiar 1911 feel. This configuration balances carry ergonomics with range performance for shooters who want a shorter Commander-length 1911.

For use with a red-dot optic under $1,000, the Trijicon RMR (Type 2) is a robust option that pairs well with the Combat Commander’s sight picture and compact slide footprint.
