Features & Specs

The Springfield 1911 TRP 45 ACP Full-Size Pistol with Black Armory Kote Finish includes a comprehensive set of factory-installed upgrades. Each component is selected to support defensive and competitive use without requiring aftermarket modifications.

• Frame and Slide: Forged carbon steel frame and slide with Black Armory Kote finish. The frame features integral magazine well chamfering for faster reloads, a full-length guide rod, and flat mainspring housing with 20-lpi checkering.
• Barrel and Sights: 5-inch match-grade stainless steel barrel with fully supported ramp. Tritium front sight paired with a tactical rack rear sight. The barrel is precision-fitted to the slide and bushing for consistent lockup.
• Trigger and Safety: Factory-tuned trigger with a 4.5–5.0 pound pull weight, skeletonized hammer, extended ambidextrous thumb safety, and a beavertail grip safety with memory bump. The trigger system uses a lightweight aluminum trigger with an overtravel stop.

Additional specifications include an overall length of 8.6 inches, a height of 5.5 inches, and an unloaded weight of 40 ounces. The pistol is shipped with two 8-round magazines and a fitted carrying case. The Black Armory Kote finish is applied to all metal surfaces, reducing glare and providing resistance to salt spray and abrasion.

Who It’s For

This Springfield 1911 TRP 45 ACP Full-Size Pistol with Black Armory Kote Finish is suited for experienced shooters who require a production 1911 with enhanced reliability and accuracy. It is appropriate for law enforcement officers seeking a duty sidearm, competitive shooters in single-stack divisions, and civilian owners who prioritize a full-size defensive pistol with a forged frame and match-grade barrel. The TRP line is designed for users who demand consistent performance in high-round-count scenarios and prefer a pistol that does not require significant break-in or custom fitting. Shooters accustomed to the 1911 platform will appreciate the extended controls, crisp trigger, and the added traction from the front strap checkering. This model is not recommended for novice shooters or those seeking a compact carry option, as the full-size frame and steel construction contribute to a notable weight and profile.
