The President is a Government-length 5 inch, double-stack 1911 in 9mm with a 17+1 capacity. Built by Josh Durham, one of Nighthawk Custom’s premiere master builders, this example combines performance features with clean, precision workmanship and a DLC black finish.
The slide wears the Boardroom Series treatment: tri-top machining, a top window, side lightening ports, front and rear cocking serrations, and a Nighthawk medallion. Its match-grade barrel is flush crowned, and the recoil spring plug is checkered. The barrel hood is marked "NHC 9MM NM."
Sight regulation comes from a gold-bead front sight paired with a black ledge-style rear. The pistol is equipped with Nighthawk’s IOS interchangeable optic plate system for mounting a red dot, while maintaining iron sights on the gun.
The high-capacity DS frame uses a steel receiver with a one-piece aluminum grip module featuring aggressive hex/dimple texturing, an integrated flared magwell, and an undercut trigger guard. A flat-faced trigger, a grip safety, and a skeletonized commander-style hammer complete the controls. The dust cover underside is marked "BERRYVILLE, AR," and it includes a factory test target dated 9/3/24 at 12 yards (benchrest) noting Josh Durham as the builder. Made in the USA.
