The Auto-Ordnance Revolution 1911 .45 ACP honors the American Revolution and its Founding Fathers with historical artwork engraved across the slide (Auto-Ordnance part no. 1911BKOC7). The right side shows the Betsy Ross flag, five Founding Fathers with their signatures and a Boston Tea Party scene. The left side has the Gadsden flag, Paul Revere riding to George Washington and the line Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death set before a cannon. The finish is distressed Midnight Blue Cerakote covered with matte clear, and the copper-colored aluminum grips carry an eagle and the Declaration of Independence on one side and the Liberty Bell on the other. It starts from the Auto-Ordnance GI Model 1911, so you get the 5-inch barrel and GI sights. From Auto-Ordnance it is a custom piece with a working 1911 underneath.
