Alchemy Custom Weaponry Quantico Carry 4.25-in .45 ACP 1911 — Hand-Built, Matte Silver, Rail, Optic Ready
This Quantico Carry from Alchemy Custom Weaponry is a hand-built, commander-length 1911 crafted by Rob Schauland. Finished in matte silver 4140 carbon steel, it features a flush-cut, target-crowned 4.25-inch barrel, integral accessory rail, and factory optic-cut slide. A Stan Chen–style blended magwell, 30 lpi hand checkering, and ACW’s 1.5-inch/25-yard accuracy guarantee make this compact .45 ACP both performance-oriented and highly collectible.

The Quantico Carry marries traditional 1911 ergonomics with modern defensive upgrades. Its commander-length slide is machined with rear cocking serrations, a lowered ejection port, and an optic cut protected by a cover plate, allowing straightforward red-dot installation when desired.
A flush-cut, target-crowned barrel, single-action trigger with a flat face, and skeletonized commander hammer work together for crisp, repeatable shot breaks. ACW guarantees 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards, underscoring the pistol’s custom-grade accuracy.
The matte silver frame is hand-checkered at 30 lpi on the front strap and mainspring housing for confident grip texture, while the Stan Chen–style magwell speeds reloads without enlarging the profile. Black double-diamond G10 grips complement the finish and provide traction in all conditions.
Defensive readiness is further supported by an integral 1913-style accessory rail, a green fiber-optic front sight paired with a serrated black rear ledge, and single-sided thumb and grip safeties. Each Quantico Carry is built to order in the USA, making every example a scarce, collector-worthy sidearm.
