This Garrison is a full-size, Government-length 5-inch 1911 chambered in 9mm Luger, built on forged carbon-steel frame and slide with a hot-salt blued finish. The slide presents polished flats with matte rounds, rear cocking serrations only, and a lowered and flared ejection port for reliable extraction.
The forged stainless steel barrel is match grade and uses a standard barrel bushing, complemented by a fully supported ramp and a GI-style recoil system with a short guide rod. The 1:16 twist optimizes stability for common 9mm bullet weights.
Controls are set up for confident manipulation, including a beavertail grip safety with memory bump and a left-side thumb safety. A skeletonized, three-hole long trigger and a skeletonized commander-style hammer contribute to a crisp, single-action feel. The flat, checkered mainspring housing and smooth frontstrap pair with thinline double-diamond checkered wood grips bearing the Springfield Crossed-Cannon logo.
Sighting is straightforward with low-profile, dovetailed 3-dot sights: a white-dot front and matching rear. Capacity is 9+1 with a single-stack magazine, and the pistol retains a standard magazine release. Made in the USA, this configuration corresponds to Springfield’s part number PX9419 and carries an MSRP of $878.
