This R1 Limited is a full-size, single-stack 1911 chambered in .40 S&W with a 5-inch match-grade stainless barrel, marked "MATCH" on the hood. The slide is marked "LIMITED" and finished matte dark, complementing the dark PVD finish applied to the stainless frame and receiver. The design incorporates a lowered and flared ejection port and both forward and rear cocking serrations.
Controls and ergonomics are competition-focused, including an ambidextrous extended thumb safety, a beavertail grip safety with memory pad, and a checkered magazine release. The front strap and mainspring housing are checkered, and a flared magazine-well funnel supports fast, consistent reloads. A skeletonized commander-style hammer and a match, skeletonized trigger with over-travel screw round out the fire-control setup.
Sighting equipment consists of a red fiber-optic front and a fully adjustable, serrated target rear sight. The single-stack configuration provides a maximum capacity of 9+1 with compatible magazines.
