The Ruger SR1911 Competition pistol feeds through extended magazines offering a capacity of 10+1 rounds of 9mm Luger ammunition, and is built around a hand-fitted stainless steel slide and black nitride stainless steel frame trimmed with a 25 lines-per-inch checkered front strap and matching checkered mainspring housing.
The SR1911 competition comes factory-issued with Hogue Piranha G10 grips and a machined aluminum TechWell magwell for lightning fast reloads.
