Overview

The Springfield 1911 Trophy Match 45ACP Stainless Steel is a factory-built target pistol that bridges the gap between off-the-shelf reliability and match-grade accuracy. It features a forged slide and frame, a fully adjustable rear sight, and a crisp trigger that breaks cleanly at around 4 to 5 pounds. The stainless steel construction gives it a corrosion-resistant finish that stays sharp even after years of use. This is not a safe queen; it is a shooter’s tool designed to put rounds exactly where you aim them.

Features & Specs

Springfield Armory built this 1911 with competition and serious range work in mind. The barrel is a match-grade, fully supported ramped bull barrel that locks up tight for consistent accuracy. The top of the slide is serrated to reduce glare, and the front strap features 20-line-per-inch checkering for a secure grip under recoil. Here are the key specifications you need to know:

• Caliber: 45 ACP with a 5-inch match-grade barrel and a fully supported ramp for reliable feeding with a wide range of hollow points and hardball ammunition.
• Frame and slide are machined from stainless steel forgings, then hand-fitted to eliminate play and ensure long-term durability.
• Adjustable rear sight with a serrated front blade, paired with a skeletonized trigger, extended thumb safety, and a beavertail grip safety with a memory bump.

Additional features worth noting include a one-piece, full-length guide rod, a lowered and flared ejection port for reliable extraction, and slimline wood grips that provide a solid purchase without being bulky. The magazine well is beveled for fast reloads, and the pistol comes with two 7-round magazines.
