The Tisas 1911 Crusader Full Size Pistol in .45 ACP (brand part no. 10100518AA2) brings a distinctive Distressed Graphite Cerakote finish and multi-color Cerakote grips to Tisas’s proven full-size 1911 platform. Tisas builds the Crusader around a carbon steel frame with an integral beavertail for a higher, more secure grip, topped with a 5-inch serrated steel slide for classic 1911 handling and a thumb safety for traditional single-action carry. The distressed graphite finish gives the pistol a worn, tactical look straight out of the box rather than years of holster wear. Among semi-auto handguns, the Crusader suits 1911 shooters who want authentic single-action feel paired with standout custom styling.
