Taking a classic 1911 to the next level without diminishing

its history is no easy feat, but adding an even more classic

finish formally raises the bar.  Auto-Ordnance has done just

that with the new GI Series 1911 with “case hardened” finish.

This time honored tradition of working steel produces

distinct and unique patterns of color long sought after by

firearms aficionados.

The Auto-Ordnance Case Hardened 1911s are each a work

of art, covered in a beautiful, swirling finish. Beneath the

colorful surface is an all steel, 5”, “GI” pattern 1911 pistol,

chambered in powerful .45 ACP. The grips are checkered

wood with the “US” military logo. While every AutoOrdnance GI 1911 is made to replicate the look of the original

guns, they are also equipped with a precisely machined

barrel. This guarantees that they may look like a GI pistol,

but they will shoot with a level of accuracy the originals

could not match.

The Auto-Ordnance Case Hardened 1911 gives today’s

shooter a chance to own a beautifully finished piece of

American military history, and experience legendary

shooting performance with every trip to the range!
