This Wraith is a single-action, full-size 1911 built on a forged stainless steel frame and slide, both finished in Distressed Duty. It is a single-stack .45 ACP with an 8+1 capacity and government-length profile. Factory dimensions list an overall length of 9.5 in, width of 1.5 in, and a weight of 42.3 oz.
The 5.75 in stainless, match-grade barrel is factory threaded with a 0.578x28 pattern, ready for common .45 ACP muzzle devices. The slide features rear cocking serrations and a serrated top rib to cut glare during sighting.
Sights are fixed, suppressor-height night sights with a front dot and a notched rear for a clear, high-visibility sight picture. Controls include a left-side manual thumb safety, a beavertail grip safety with memory pad, a skeletonized commander-style hammer, and a solid, mid-length trigger. The grips are textured synthetic (G10-type) for secure purchase.
Ergonomic enhancements include fine 25 LPI checkering on the frontstrap and mainspring housing, plus an integral magazine-well funnel (one-piece mainspring housing/magwell) for fast, consistent reloads. This model has no accessory rail. Factory rollmarks include "Wraith" on the slide and the Norwich, NY address on the frame, with ".45ACP" and "MATCH" on the barrel hood.
