The Classic 130 Master Grade 30th Anniversary Limited run is identified by its commemorative engraving and WCTA serial-prefix series. The slide carries bordered/scroll-style engraved panels with "CLASSIC 130 MASTER GRADE" and "30th ANNIVERSARY LIMITED 1978–2008," along with decorative "30" badge/eagle motifs that mark the model’s anniversary theme.
Built on a full-size 1911 Government pattern, it uses a 5-inch, bushing-fitted barrel and a single-action-only system. The slide incorporates front and rear cocking serrations and a lowered, flared ejection port. Markings include "WILSON 45 ACP" on the chamber hood and "WILSON COMBAT BERRYVILLE, AR U.S.A." on the frame.
The two-tone finish pairs a black slide with a matte silver frame. Ergonomic features include a high-cut trigger guard, a beavertail grip safety with a memory pad, fine checkering on the front strap and flat mainspring housing, and a single-side (left) manual thumb safety. The trigger is a lightweight three-hole design, and the hammer is a skeletonized commander-style unit.
Sighting equipment consists of a dovetailed front sight with a yellow fiber-optic insert and a fully adjustable rear sight, set up for precise target work. The pistol wears Wilson Combat Starburst high-gloss hardwood grips with medallions, and it comes with a spare set of gray G10 Starburst grips for an alternative texture and appearance.
This 2007–2008 example is chambered in .45 ACP with a 10+1 capacity and includes a substantial magazine set. The package is completed by a Wilson Combat soft pistol case bearing the embroidered eagle logo.
