Ruger SR1911 Lightweight Commander .45 ACP Blue/Black Pistol

The SR1911 Lightweight Commander is a single-action .45 ACP pistol with a 4.25-inch barrel, a 7.75-inch overall length and a 29.3-ounce weight. It holds seven rounds plus one in the chamber and ships with one magazine. The frame is lightweight aluminum, and the grips are checkered wood with the classic 1911 look.

This is the Commander-length 1911 for a buyer who wants the traditional controls in a pistol that is lighter to carry than a steel-framed model. The ambidextrous manual safety and the beavertail grip safety keep the familiar 1911 handling, and the single-action trigger suits precise shooting. The fixed sights and the lack of an optic-ready cut mean the iron sights carry the sight picture, which is the setup most 1911 shooters already know.
