One-of-a-kind, hand-crafted 1911 pistol. Number 1 of only 4 in existence.
Built around the proven 1911A1 design, this pistol incorporates both functional and aesthetic enhancements while preserving the timeless character of the original platform.
The pistol features Damascus steel forged by Princeworks Forge using steel recovered from the wreckage of the World Trade Center Towers. This historically significant material was incorporated into the slide and custom grip panels, creating a truly unique connection to the events of September 11, 2001.
The slide, barrel, and numerous small components have been meticulously hand-fitted to achieve exceptional function and a seamless appearance. The frame-mounted safeties feature a polished DLC finish, complemented by polished stainless-steel components throughout the pistol. The hand-fitted .45 ACP barrel features a jeweled hood, adding another distinctive detail to the pistol's custom finish.
The pistol is presented in a custom, locking walnut display case featuring an engraved glass dust cover and a black crushed-velvet interior. The case also includes two custom 8-round 1911 magazines engraved with 9/11 memorial artwork, along with a certificate of authenticity displayed inside the lid.
More than a custom firearm, this 1911 is a piece of American history, meticulously crafted to honor the lives, sacrifice, and enduring legacy associated with September 11, 2001.
