Who It’s For

This Springfield 1911 TRP 45 ACP full-size pistol with black Armory Kote finish is built for the serious defensive shooter, the competitive marksman, and the collector who demands a production 1911 that functions like a custom gun. Law enforcement professionals and civilian carriers who require a duty-grade sidearm with proven track records will find the TRP meets their reliability standards. It is also well-suited for shooters who prefer a heavier, full-steel platform to manage .45 ACP recoil effectively. If you intend to carry concealed, note that the full-size frame and 5-inch barrel require a purpose-built holster and a sturdy belt.

• Ideal for competition, home defense, and serious range practice
• Suitable for shooters who appreciate tight frame-to-slide fit and crisp trigger pulls
• Not recommended for concealed carry without an appropriate holster system
