Features & Specs

Every component of this firearm is selected for function and durability. The stainless steel frame and slide resist corrosion while providing the weight needed to manage muzzle rise during rapid fire. The match-grade barrel and fitted bushing contribute to the sub-2.5-inch accuracy potential at 25 yards. The adjustable rear sight is drift-adjustable for windage and tool-adjustable for elevation, paired with a serrated front sight for a clear sight picture. The skeletonized trigger breaks cleanly at approximately 4.5 to 5.0 pounds, and the extended thumb safety and beavertail grip safety with a memory bump ensure positive control. The Essentials Package includes three 9-round magazines, a bushing wrench, and a lockable hard case.

Who It’s For

The Springfield 1911-A1 Range Officer 9mm Stainless Essentials Package w/ Adjustable Rear Sight is designed for the competitive shooter who needs a production-legal 1911 with match-grade components out of the box. It suits USPSA Single Stack division competitors, IDPA ESP shooters, and range enthusiasts who prioritize accuracy and reliability over flashy aesthetics. The 9mm chambering makes it accessible for shooters transitioning from double-stack platforms or those who want to reduce ammunition costs while maintaining 1911 ergonomics. Experienced shooters will appreciate the adjustable rear sight for zeroing with specific loads, while newer shooters can rely on the proven Springfield Armory fit and finish. This is not a concealed carry pistol due to its full-size frame and weight, but rather a dedicated range and competition tool for those who train with purpose.
