Among custom 1911 manufacturers, Wilson Combat stands at the top of the industry. Founded by legendary pistolsmith Bill Wilson in 1977, the company has spent decades refining John Browning's iconic 1911 design into one of the most respected fighting and competition pistols ever built. Wilson Combat pistols are trusted by elite law enforcement professionals, competitive shooters, military personnel, and serious firearms enthusiasts around the world for their unmatched reliability, precision, and craftsmanship.
Offered here is a Wilson Combat Classic chambered in .45 ACP, featuring the desirable 5-inch Government Model configuration with an elegant two-tone finish. The Classic model pays tribute to the traditional custom 1911s popularized by renowned pistolsmiths of the 1970s and 1980s while incorporating Wilson Combat's modern manufacturing techniques and hand-fitting standards. Every Wilson Combat pistol is built using forged frames and slides, hand-fit match-grade components, and the company's renowned Bullet Proof® small parts to deliver exceptional reliability and accuracy.
Unlike mass-produced 1911 pistols, Wilson Combat handguns receive extensive individual fitting and inspection throughout the manufacturing process. The result is a pistol with an exceptionally smooth slide-to-frame fit, crisp single-action trigger, outstanding mechanical accuracy, and long service life. Wilson Combat backs its pistols with an accuracy guarantee and has earned a reputation as one of the benchmark names in the custom 1911 market.
The full-size 5-inch match-grade barrel provides the accuracy and reliability expected from a premium custom 1911, while the timeless two-tone finish combines classic styling with modern durability. This example also includes the original Wilson Combat factory soft case and two Wilson Combat magazines, adding value and collector appeal.
New Wilson Combat Classic pistols typically retail in the $3,000–$3,500+ range depending on configuration, making this an outstanding opportunity to own one of America's premier custom-built 1911 pistols without the cost or wait associated with ordering new.
