Tactical Elite
Our Tactical Elite is the
ultimate in defensive handguns that we offer. It was designed with only one
thing in mind--rapid and effective response to a life-threatening situation.
The Tactical Elite is a 1911, recognized as the premier defensive handgun,
taken to the pinnacle of perfection. Each design feature was chosen to enhance
response and performance. If you like our SDS pistol, but prefer a full-size
package for even more control, the Tactical Elite is the pistol for you. Centered
around the hand-fitted, stainless steel, heavy tapered cone barrel, the Tactical
Elite delivers all the accuracy one could demand, combined with the rapid
shot-to-shot recovery one would expect from a compensated pistol. But this
pistol is not compensated! The hot gases from compensators can present a real
hazard during a defensive situation and increase muzzle flash; the Tactical
Elite's unported, maximum-weight barrel cannot. And it improves reliability
and accuracy!
Nothing is left to chance on the Tactical Elite, as we lavish attention and
our premium accessories on it. Ambidextrous thumb safety, extended ejector,
high-ride beavertail, ultralight hammer and trigger--they're all there, plus
more. Because of the Tactical Elite's primary purpose--the saving of a life--details
such as the fit of parts, polishing and throating of the barrel, beveling
the magazine well, lowering and flaring the ejection port, and tuning of the
extractor are critical, and our attention to them reflects just that. For
the final touches on recoil control, the frontstrap is high cut, checkering
applied to it and the flat mainspring housing, and then our top-shelf Cocobolo
checkered wooden grips are installed. As benefits any defensive handgun, the
Tactical Elite is completely dehorned, our Tactical Combat sights are installed,
and all carbon steel parts covered with Armor-Tuff. The highest performance
self-defense pistol available--the elite of our elite--the Tactical Elite.
