The Ruger SR1911 Phoenix in .45 ACP with a 5-inch barrel (Ruger part no. 16708) is a TALO-exclusive 1911 that pairs classic styling with Ruger’s modern CNC-controlled manufacturing. Ruger machines the slide-to-frame fit with tight tolerances for smooth slide travel and positive barrel lock-up, delivering accuracy right out of the box. A lightweight, skeletonized aluminum trigger with an adjustable over-travel stop, a skeletonized hammer, and a titanium firing pin combine for a crisp pull and faster lock time. This Phoenix edition adds custom engraving, red pearl kirinite grips, and a color anneal finish on the slide, giving the pistol a striking, collector-grade appearance without sacrificing the SR1911’s reputation for reliability.
