Features & Specs

The Springfield 1911 TRP 45 ACP Black Armory Kote Essentials Package is machined with precision and assembled with attention to detail. Here is what sets this pistol apart from standard production 1911s.

• 5-inch match-grade barrel with a fully supported ramp and tight bushing fit for consistent accuracy shot after shot.
• TRP trigger system with a lightweight aluminum trigger, tuned sear, and three-hole design for a crisp, clean break at approximately 4-5 pounds.

Additional features include a lowered and flared ejection port, front and rear slide serrations, and a beavertail grip safety with a memory bump. The pistol comes with a standard GI-style recoil system and a single 7-round magazine. The Essentials Package keeps the build focused on the fundamentals: accuracy, durability, and ergonomics.

• Checkered mainspring housing and frontstrap (20 lines per inch) for a secure grip under recoil.
• Tritium front sight and tactical-rack rear sight for low-light visibility.
