The GI Plus is our most traditional expression of the 1911 platform – a handmade American icon shaped by service history, refined through craftsmanship, and guided by intent. Every design decision balances visual harmony with authenticity, recognizing that the 1911, when rendered correctly, is inherently beautiful.
Highlights: GI rear sight; 14k gold bead front sight; Ring hammer; 30 lines per inch checkered front strap and mainspring housing; Classic GI serrations. Each pistol is hand built start to finish by a single Nighthawk Custom gunsmith in Berryville, Arkansas.
