Springfield Armory

The rugged 1911 Range Officer Elite handles the 10mm cartridge with the kind of casual dominance that gave your grandpa his bone-crushing handshake. It is built on a forged frame and slide and features an upgraded Cerakote finish, G10 grips, and ambi safety. The stainless steel match-grade barrel delivers on-target rounds with repeatable precision. The Range Officer Elite is ready for the range or defensive applications and sports an accessory rail for the mounting of lights and lasers. The extended lightweight Gen 2 speed trigger combines precision with positive control. The steel front sight includes a fiber optic light tube that enhances target indexing, while the tactical-rack rear sight lets you reliably charge the gun in an emergency. The 1911 Range Officer Elite Operator pistol is a precision crafted fistful of serious power. Combining the 1911's classic single-action trigger with an 18.5-lb. G.I.-style recoil system, custom thin-line G10 grips and a self-lubricating Cerakote finish. Perfectly balanced with an extended ambidextrous safety and ample beavertail, this is the powerful defensive handgun for the discerning shooter.
