Less than 50 of these beryllium copper Safari Arms Model 1911 pistols are believed to have been manufactured, with far fewer engraved, possibly ten. Safari Arms itself started as a Phoenix, Arizona, based company, until it was acquired by Olympic Arms and continued to produce its 1911 models under the Safari name, even once all production had been moved to the Olympic Arms facility in Olympia, Washington, with this example being manufactured by the latter. Features serrated ramp fixed blade front and adjustable notched tangent rear sights, extended slide catch, thumb safety, and beavertail grip safety. The frame and slide display 90% coverage floral scroll engraving on a punchdot background. Includes original black plastic hard case.

Excellent overall, with a few minor handling marks, an attractive patina on the slide and frame, and crisp engraving. Mechanically excellent. This scarce pistol will be sure to stand out and make an excellent conversation piece in any 1911 collection!
