Iver Johnson Eagle XL | .45 ACP | 6″ Barrel | 8rd

The Iver Johnson Eagle XL is a full-size, semi-automatic .45 ACP pistol built on a steel frame with a longer slide and barrel for stabilized sight radius. It features wood grips and a case-colored, hardened finish that blends traditional styling with several performance-oriented controls. This configuration is well-suited to range and competition shooting where sight radius and controllability matter. Pair it with a compact red-dot optic such as a Holosun 507K (a solid option under $1,000) for faster sight acquisition while retaining the pistol’s adjustable iron sights.
