TISAS 1911 Duty Enhanced | .45 ACP | 5″ | 8rd

The TISAS 1911 Duty Enhanced is a full-size .45 ACP 1911 built on a forged foundation with upgraded components drawn from Tisas’ Match line. It pairs a forged stainless frame with a carbon steel, QPQ Tennifer-treated slide and a 5″ cold hammer-forged, ramped barrel. Controls and ergonomics are enhanced with checkering, an extended beavertail grip safety, ambidextrous safety and Novak-style U-notch rear sight; consider a compact red-dot such as a Trijicon RMR (Type 2) or a Holosun 507K to keep total system cost well under $1,000.
