Remington 1911 R1 Stainless (R1S) .45 ACP, 5-Inch Government, Match-Grade Barrel, Matte Stainless, 7+1
This Remington Model 1911 R1 Stainless (R1S) is a full-size, Government-length .45 ACP built with a matte stainless slide and frame and marked "1911 R1S" to denote the stainless variant. Made in the United States with an Ilion, NY frame rollmark, it pairs a match-grade barrel and bushing with fixed 3-dot dovetailed sights and classic double-diamond checkered wood grips.

The stainless R1S configuration features a matte stainless steel slide and frame with rear-only vertical serrations and a lowered ejection port. The slide is marked "1911 R1S," clearly identifying the stainless variant within the R1 series, and the frame carries the Ilion, NY rollmark.
A Government-length 5-inch match-grade barrel is paired with a match-grade bushing. This setup, combined with the lowered ejection port, delivers the classic 1911 shooting characteristics in a durable stainless package.
Controls follow the traditional 1911 pattern: single-action operation, a non-ambidextrous manual thumb safety, standard (non-beavertail) grip safety, and a firing pin block. The pistol uses a solid, non-skeletonized aluminum trigger and a spur hammer, with a standard magazine release.
Sight equipment includes fixed 3-dot sights with both front and rear units dovetailed into the slide. The checkered wood double-diamond grips provide a secure hold, and the beveled magazine well aids in magazine changes. A GI-style short guide rod with a checkered plug completes the classic layout.
