Description:

Manufactured as a collaboration between two titans of the custom 1911s, Nighthawk Custom and Turnbull Restoration, this pistol stands as a stunning and understated example of functional art. The slide is finished in Turnbull's classic pre-World War II Colt style bluing and fitted with a 14 karat gold bead front sight and Heinie serrated blacked out rear sight, bronzed barrel bushing and recoil spring plunger, with the back of the slide serrated to match the rear sight. The frame displays the signature beautifully vibrant case colors that put Turnbull on the map and is mated with an equally beautiful set of Mammoth ivory grips, high polish controls, trigger bronzed to match the barrel bushing and recoil plunger, an extended grip safety, and integral flared magazine well. Includes a Nighthawk Custom hard case with leather accents and one extra magazine.

Rating Definition:

Excellent overall, retaining 99% plus original charcoal blue and casehardened finish with light handling evidence. Case is very good. Mechanically excellent. This incredible piece of firearms art will definitely make a statement in any collection!
