The Government-length configuration centers on a 5" bushing-fit stainless steel barrel, delivering the classic 1911 profile and proven geometry. The slide carries rear-only serrations, an internal extractor, and a lowered/flared ejection port for reliable case clearance.
Sighting is straightforward and durable with dovetailed, fixed 3-dot front and rear units. The trigger is a long, three-hole, lightened style that supports a crisp single-action pull, while the skeletonized commander-style hammer complements the setup.
The frame and slide are carbon steel with a uniform black oxide finish and double-diamond checkered wood stocks for a secure, traditional grip. Standard 1911 controls are present, including a manual thumb safety, grip safety, and a standard magazine release.
Markings include "1911 R1" on the slide and "REMINGTON ARMS CO. ILION, NY, USA" with ERPC on the frame, underscoring its U.S. manufacture and place in Remington's contemporary 1911 lineup. Capacity is 8+1, and this example comes with three quality 8-round magazines from respected makers.
