Description

Sheriff Jim Wilson’s vision of the perfect do-it-all 1911. Built on a 4.25″ commander-length slide mated to a full-size frame with our Concealed Carry Cut, the Border Special delivers a true full-grip feel while greatly reducing printing under clothing.

Ordering & transfer

How you'll receive it

Ordered to build: your card is charged at checkout and we place the order on our dealer allocation the same day. Call us if you would rather reserve it with a deposit and pay the balance before transfer.

  • Pick up in Lake Stevens, by appointment (Washington residents). Bring government photo ID and proof of firearm-safety training at your first visit. We run the Form 4473 and the Washington application, and submit the state background check. When you buy the firearm from us, the transfer and the $36 state fee are included. Washington requires ten business days from that request before any firearm is handed over.
  • Ship to your dealer in any state where this item is legal, free of charge. Your dealer emails us a signed copy of their licence (27 CFR 478.94); we match it against ATF's FFL eZ Check before it ships. Their transfer fee and state rules apply at pickup.

Status of an order or build: call (844) 289-1911 or email hello@precisionshooting.us. We also email you when a build starts.
