Features & Specs

Every component of the Springfield 1911 Loaded Target 9mm Stainless Steel is selected to enhance accuracy and handling. The stainless steel slide and frame are precision-fitted to minimize play, while the 5-inch match-grade barrel is ramped for reliable feeding of 9mm ammunition. The front sight is a fiber optic unit for rapid acquisition, paired with an adjustable rear sight for precise windage and elevation corrections. The skeletonized aluminum trigger breaks cleanly at approximately 4 to 5 pounds after a short take-up, and the extended beavertail grip safety with a memory bump ensures a consistent high-hand hold. A full-length guide rod, checkered mainspring housing, and ambidextrous thumb safety complete the package.
