The Government-size 5-inch configuration delivers the traditional 1911 feel and sight radius, built here in stainless steel for both the frame and slide. The slide features polished flats with a matte top and a lowered, flared ejection port. The match-marked barrel underscores the SSP’s accuracy-focused setup.
Sights are straightforward and quick: a dovetailed red fiber-optic front paired with a low-mount fixed rear with two white dots. This combination offers a bright front index with a clean, durable rear sight profile.
Controls and ergonomics include a left-side thumb safety and a beavertail grip safety, a skeletonized three-slot trigger, and a Commander-style skeletonized hammer. The flat, vertically serrated mainspring housing and lightly beveled single-stack magazine well support consistent handling and reloads. Checkered double-diamond wood grips with gold Para medallions provide a secure, classic 1911 grip frame feel.
Identity and provenance details stand out on this variant: the right side of the slide is marked "GUN RIGHTS," and the frame carries the Pineville, NC legend from Para USA’s U.S. production era. Para USA branding was later absorbed into Remington, adding clear context to the model’s timeframe. Capacity is 7+1 with the included two 7-round magazines.
