Custom Shop CQB Design

The CQB (Close Quarters Battle) model is designed around practical defensive shooting performance. It prioritizes reliability, durability, and fast target acquisition over purely competition-oriented features.

The FDE/Bronze finish provides a tactical, low-reflective appearance while enhancing corrosion resistance and wear durability.

.45 ACP Defensive Performance

Chambered in .45 ACP, this pistol delivers the classic 1911 recoil impulse with a strong, controllable push in a full steel-frame platform. The 5-inch barrel helps maintain consistent velocity and accuracy for defensive or range use.

Sight System for Low-Light Use

Novak night sights provide improved visibility in reduced lighting conditions, supporting rapid sight alignment and target acquisition in defensive scenarios.

Ergonomics and Control Features

The black G10 grips provide a secure, textured hold under varied conditions. Combined with the 1911 grip angle and beavertail-style ergonomics (typical of CQB designs), the pistol supports stable recoil management and consistent handling.
