Wilson combat has been manufacturing high end 1911 pistols since 1977, the CQB compact is one of those such pistols. Made using the highest quality materials and machined to tolerances which result in a smooth and accurate firearm that will last a lifetime. The CQB compact .45ACP is a scaled down version of the full size 1" shorter slide and 1/2" shorter grip make it ideal for concealed carry. The carbon steel frame has a high checkered front strap for positive grip, and the high ride Bullet Proof beavertail safety and Bullet Proof thumb safety provide consistent and reliable operation under any condition. Other features include a contoured magwell for smoother reloads and crisp 3.5lb-4.5lb trigger breaks clean with quick reset. The 4" stainless steel match grade hand fit barrel delivers an exceptional level of accuracy especially for a compact carry gun. The carbon steel slide is topped with the Wilson Combat battle sights with fiber optic front sight offers a superior sight picture in most lighting conditions. Starburst G10 style grips give the Wilson Combat CQB compact a unique look and holds firm in the hand under less than ideal conditions.
