The frame and slide are hand-fit for tight lock-up, delivering consistent accuracy. Polished flats contrast with the matte two-tone finish, while rear cocking serrations provide positive grip during manipulation.
The 5-inch match barrel, hood, bushing, and magazines are engine-turned for a distinctive look and smoother operation. A two-piece full-length guide rod aids recoil control.
Thirty-line-per-inch checkering on the frontstrap and mainspring housing, paired with checkered cocobolo grips bearing the Ithaca logo, give the pistol a secure, comfortable hold.
A skeletonized trigger and combat hammer reduce lock time, and dual safeties—grip and manual thumb—offer familiar 1911 control. Combined with Bo-Mar-style sights, the result is a precision-oriented, range-ready handgun that remains highly collectible.
