The Auto-Ordnance Stainless 1911 Savage Stainless is a full-size .45 ACP pistol with a 5-inch match grade barrel and a Savage Stainless Cerakote finish (Auto-Ordnance part no. 1911TCAC6). It is built on a stainless steel frame, slide and barrel with the upgrades modern 1911 shooters look for: an adjustable trigger, a skeletonized hammer, a full-length recoil guide rod, an extended beavertail grip safety and an extended magazine release. The slide has decorative cuts and front cocking serrations, and both the mainspring housing and the front strap are machined with 20-lines-per-inch checkering. Gray G10 grips give it a more understated look than the colored versions. From Auto-Ordnance it makes a good range pistol and a good collector piece.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is .45 ACP, the cartridge the 1911 was designed around and a long-standing choice for range and defensive use.
• The barrel is a 5-inch match grade barrel, the full-size length that gives a long sight radius.
• The frame, slide and barrel are stainless steel, a material that resists corrosion better than blued carbon steel.
• The finish is Savage Stainless Cerakote, a durable coating over the stainless steel.
• The sights are Combat Day sights, a clear daylight sight picture for range work.
• The adjustable trigger lets the shooter tune the pull to personal preference.
• The extended beavertail grip safety keeps the web of the hand clear of the hammer and helps the pistol seat consistently in the hand.
• Three safeties are fitted, a thumb safety, a grip safety and a firing pin block, so the traditional 1911 manual safety is paired with two passive ones.
• The grips are gray G10, a textured composite that stays grippy and resists wear.
• The pistol ships with one 7-round magazine, the standard single-stack capacity for a full-size .45 ACP 1911.
