Purpose-built as a rimfire 1911, this GSG 1911 CA uses a fixed steel barrel and a simple blowback action tuned for high-velocity .22 LR. The configuration supports reliable cycling in a full-size 1911 format with a 10+1 capacity.
The slide is CNC-machined aluminum with a black hard-coat anodized finish and rear serrations only. The frame is zinc alloy, paired with a skeletonized commander-style hammer and a skeletonized three-hole trigger for a familiar 1911 trigger feel.
Sighting is clear and practical: a red fiber-optic front in a dovetail and a low-profile adjustable rear. The non-threaded 5 in barrel features a plain crown, matching the California-compliant setup.
Controls are classic 1911 single-action only with a thumb safety, grip safety, and a beavertail grip safety with a memory bump. Double-diamond checkered wood grips complete the traditional aesthetic. Markings include "GSG – 1911 CA," "MADE IN GERMANY," German C.I.P. "CIP N" and "DE" proofs, and the American Tactical (Summerville, SC) importer mark.
