This Government-length GRP is a 5-inch, non-railed 1911 configured for duty-ready ergonomics and control. It includes a checkered front strap and a flat, checkered mainspring housing, paired with textured G10 grip panels featuring Nighthawk medallions for a secure hold.
The slide is set up with front and rear cocking serrations and a lowered, flared ejection port. Sights are fixed Trijicon tritium units with an H3 16 date code, using a dovetailed single-dot front and a robust ledge-style rear for consistent alignment in varied light.
Controls are classic 1911, including a single-action trigger system with a long, lightened three-hole trigger, a skeletonized commander-style hammer, a single-sided thumb safety, and a beavertail grip safety with a memory bump. The setup is straightforward and proven for 1911 users.
Both slide and frame wear a uniform matte green/bronze tone finish that sets this pistol apart. The barrel hood is marked NHC 45 NM, and documentation includes a Nighthawk factory test target dated 12-19-2016.
Chambered in .45 ACP with an 8+1 capacity, this full-size GRP comes with one 8-round single-stack magazine and maintains the clean, purposeful configuration expected of a government-size 1911.
