This Adam 45s follows the classic Government-length 1911 pattern with a 5-inch barrel and single-stack 8+1 capacity. It is single-action only and features a beavertail grip safety and an extended left-side thumb safety for positive, 1911-standard manual control.
The slide and frame wear a factory QPQ black finish, labeled QPQ Siyah by the maker. Wave-pattern front and rear cocking serrations aid press-checks and manipulations. The slide is marked ADAM 45s over BALISTIK DEFENCE, and serial number markings are present on the barrel hood and the exterior of the barrel as noted.
The sighting system is set up for precision with a fully adjustable rear sight paired to a gold-dot front post. A solid, smooth, medium-length trigger, a skeletonized commander-style rowel hammer, and a vertically grooved mainspring housing round out the fire-control and handling details. A standard barrel bushing with a checkered recoil spring plug is retained.
Grips are checkered walnut with Balistik Defence medallions. Two ACT-MAG Italy 8-round magazines with numbered witness holes are included. Proof and import markings read MADE IN TÜRKIYE, MFR: BALISTIK SAVUNMA A.S., and IMP: GFORCE ARMS, INC. RENO NV. The model is listed on the Maryland Handgun Roster (added December 5, 2024) and is noted as compliant for Maryland.
