Tisas 1911 A1 US Army Issued Series .45 ACP, Full-Size 5 in, Matte Gray, Forged Steel
This Tisas 1911 A1 US Army Issued Series is a full-size .45 ACP reproduction built with a forged-steel slide and frame and Series 70-compatible internals. It carries GI-style details including fixed sights, an arched mainspring housing with lanyard loop, and rear-only vertical slide serrations. The slide is marked "U.S. 1911-A1," with additional underside and import markings that clearly identify its origin and series.
Government-length with a 5 in barrel and standard 7+1 capacity in .45 ACP, this example presents the classic A1 ergonomics and controls in a matte gray finish. It includes a factory case, manual, one 7-round magazine, a cleaning rod with brush, and a spare pair of full-checkered grips.

The Issued Series presentation emphasizes USGI-style features and markings. The slide wears "U.S. 1911-A1," while the underside shows "ZIG M1911." Import and origin markings include "TISAS KNOXVILLE, TN" and "Made in TURKEY," aligning the pistol squarely within Tisas’s historically styled lineup.
Construction is all forged steel for both the slide and frame, paired with Series 70-compatible internals. The pistol uses a standard 1911-profile ejection port and a matte gray finish on both frame and slide for a uniform, purposeful look.
