Springfield Armory 1911-A1 Loaded .45 ACP, Parkerized, 5-Inch Match Barrel, CA Compliant
The Springfield Armory 1911-A1 Loaded series takes the classic Government-size 1911 platform and adds factory upgrades that shooters usually install later. Forged IMBEL slide and frame construction, a match-grade stainless barrel, and a full complement of modern features make this mid-2000s example a ready-to-run .45 that still fits California’s roster.

The Loaded series pairs traditional 1911 handling with purposeful enhancements. A match-grade, stainless 5-inch barrel sits inside a forged carbon-steel slide featuring polished flats, forward cocking serrations, and a tough parkerized finish.
Shooter-focused appointments include a skeletonized match trigger with over-travel screw, a skeletonized commander-style hammer, and a two-piece full-length guide rod that aids recoil control. Grip and thumb safeties, along with an inertial firing pin, provide layered security.
Low-profile three-dot combat sights offer a clean sight picture without snag risk. Black double-diamond synthetic stocks give a solid purchase while preserving the pistol’s classic lines.
Forged by IMBEL in Brazil and assembled in Geneseo, Illinois, this pistol carries “MADE IN BRAZIL-IMBEL” marks and the N-prefix serial range that places production in the mid-2000s. Its presence on the California roster increases appeal in restrictive states.
With its factory case, holster, dual mag pouch, and two OEM magazines, this package provides everything needed to head straight to the range or into rotation.
