The AR variant features an integral MIL-STD-1913 accessory rail with two cross-slots, adding practical mounting versatility to the full-size 1911 platform. Its steel frame and slide are finished in FDE, giving the pistol a cohesive, durable look from end to end.
Controls and enhancements include an ambidextrous thumb safety, grip safety, and a firing pin block. This specimen does not have the Taurus keyed security lock. A high-cut undertrigger guard, serrated front strap, and a flat checkered mainspring housing support a firm, consistent grip, while the extended slide stop aids manipulation.
The slide is configured with front and rear cocking serrations and a lowered ejection port. Sights consist of a dovetailed front blade and a fully adjustable square-notch rear, offering precise zeroing. The skeletonized commander-style hammer and skeletonized 3-hole trigger complete the performance-focused setup.
