Italian manufacturer Chiappa is famous for its cost-effective weapon models directly based on classic designs. The 1911 Superior Grade model is a modified design based on this classic platform using solutions found in the development version of the M45 MEUSOC. It features both a lightweight, skeletonized cocking, a modified spur that allows building a higher grip, and an extended trigger tongue that improves shooting. A version with a chrome-plated surface finish.
The Chiappa 1911 Superior Grade pistol provides the user with:- Proven all-steel construction offering great ergonomics and precision
- Featuring the original .45 Automatic Colt Pistol cartridge with high kinetic energy
- SA-type trigger that guarantees low resistance and high smoothness, translating into accuracy
- Service-grade steel mechanical instruments with a horizontally adjustable stock
- Fuses characteristic of the 1911 to eliminate the risk of accidental firing
To give us the same grip ergonomics as the original, the magazine remained in the classic single-row form. Identical to the original, the magazine is capable of holding 8 .45 ACP cartridges. The all-steel construction translates into high weight and rigidity, which, combined with the SA-type trigger, positively affects the weapon's precision. The pistol has received fixed mechanical sights, which will work well in target shooting.
