Auto-Ordnance 1911 A1 GI Spec .45 ACP 5" Barrel, 7-Round Magazine, MA Compliant - Model 1911BKOMA$805.71
Availability: In Stock
The Auto Ordnance 1911A1 in 9mm is a no-frills, honest-to-goodness 1911 built to GI specs—the kind of straightforward, reliable pistol that works when you need it to. If you're after a classic single-action semiautomatic for target shooting, training, or general pistol use without the premium price tag, this matte black 5-inch barrel model delivers proven 1911 ergonomics and controls in a lightweight package. It ships with one 9-round magazine and checkered wood grips stamped with the U.S. logo, giving it that authentic military heritage look.
What makes this version practical is the 9mm caliber—more affordable to shoot than .45 ACP, easier on recoil, and still plenty capable. The 5-inch barrel keeps it handy for the range or duty belt, while the 39-ounce weight is comfortable to carry all day. Three independent safeties (thumb safety, grip safety, and firing pin block) layer in protection, and the adjustable rear sight lets you dial in your point of aim for different loads or distances.
This is a working pistol, not a collector's piece or a tacticool build platform. It's the kind of gun that appeals to shooters who respect what the 1911 design does well and don't need it dripping in accessories or exotic finishes. Whether you're breaking into 1911s, running it at the club, or stashing it as a reliable backup, the Auto Ordnance GI model earns its place on the shelf.
| Caliber | 9mm |
| Barrel Length | 5 inches |
| Overall Length | 8.5 inches |
| Weight | 39 ounces |
| Finish | Matte Black |
| Grips | Checkered Wood with U.S. Logo |
| Sights | Blade front, drift-adjustable rear (windage) |
| Magazine Capacity | 9 rounds |
| Safeties | Thumb safety, grip safety, firing pin block |
| Included | One 9-round magazine |
The Auto Ordnance 1911A1 ships with one 9-round magazine. You'll want to grab a few extra mags if you plan on range sessions or training.
Yes. The GI-spec design is simple and intuitive—no external safties to fumble, no complicated controls. Single-action trigger, straightforward safety lever, and proven ergonomics make it a solid platform for learning the platform. The 9mm caliber also helps keep recoil and ammunition costs down.
At 39 ounces with an 8.5-inch overall length, it's manageable on a belt but larger than modern compact pistols. Many shooters use 5-inch 1911s for open carry, duty use, or range work. Concealed carry is possible depending on your holster and setup, but this model is sized more for utility than deep concealment.
The rear sight is drift-adjustable for windage correction. The front sight is a blade. You'll need a sight tool or punch to move the rear sight left or right to dial in your zero at your preferred distance.
