The stainless slide and frame wear a uniform matte finish and include front and rear cocking serrations. The ejection port is lowered and flared, and the pistol uses an external extractor. The recoil system uses a GI-length plug with no full-length guide rod.
The sights are set up for precision: a black blade front paired with a fully adjustable target rear. Combined with the 5-inch barrel and 8.7-inch overall length, this SW1911 is configured for clear sight pictures and fine-tuning at the range.
Grip and control surfaces are thoughtfully executed, with 20 LPI front strap checkering and a flat, checkered mainspring housing. An internal magwell bevel aids magazine insertion, and checkered double-diamond wood grip panels provide a classic, positive hold.
Fire controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety and a beavertail grip safety with a raised memory bump. The fire-control group features a skeletonized commander-style hammer and a skeletonized three-hole trigger. Capacity is 8+1, and two 8-round magazines are included.
