Rock Island M1911-A1 Pro Match Pistol, .45 ACP, 6-Inch

The Rock Island M1911-A1 Pro Match pistol in .45 ACP with a 6-inch barrel (brand part no. 51529) extends the classic 1911 platform for a longer sight radius, purpose-built for match-grade accuracy at extended distances. Armscor/Rock Island Armory adds a Picatinny rail to the dust cover for mounting a light or laser, and an 8-round magazine keeps the platform’s proven .45 ACP capacity. The extended barrel length is a distinguishing feature of the Pro Match line, built for shooters who want every advantage in precision shooting. Among extended-barrel 1911-pattern semi-auto handguns, this Pro Match configuration favors shooters who want a longer sight radius for precision work.
