Shop for Auto Ordnance Liberty Custom 1911 online at GunBroker.com
The Auto Ordnance Liberty Custom 1911 pistol is a 7+1 capacity .45 ACP M1911. This Made in USA semi-automatic looks amazing thanks to a unique brown and black Cerakote finish that gives a fine weathered patina even when brand new. It has a full-size 5.0” barrel, 8.6” overall length and weighs 2.3 pounds.
Advancing its Liberty motif are the large “Liberty Death” letters and the original Presidential Seal engraved on the slide’s right and on the slide’s left flank you’ll see (and feel) “Don’t Tread” and the Gadsden flag’s famous snake. Additionally, Auto Ordnance uses custom Goncalo wood grips. This tigerwood looks great and gives everything a near copper effect. On one side you have the Liberty Bell and on the other “DTOM”, as in Don’t Tread on Me. Both the Liberty Bell and DTOM are in nice rondels further punctuated by 13 stars representing the original Thirteen Colonies. They grips are full of character, quite beautiful and have the famed large double-diamond screw surrounds.
Beyond that, this M1911 is superbly classic from its barrel-vaulted slide with a clean front but vertical slide serrations in back to GI sights, finger recesses behind the trigger and timeless proportions. You have a blade sight in front and a dovetailed drift adjustable sight in back. There’s a manual thumb safety and slide catch on the left and so on.
The slide, disconnector and sear are carbon steel that’s machined using solid bar stock as a starting point. These are made and then heat treated for extreme long-term durability. The frame is carbon steel too!
The gun is to be admired for its safety suite. It has a firing pin block, the aforementioned thumb safety and a grip safety. The firing pin block is a passive safety that prevents the firing pin from moving forward to fire the gun if the trigger isn’t first pulled. This is handy in instances such as if it is accidentally dropped.
Other tactile surfaces abound. Thus, the slide catch, thumb safety, have serrations. The circular magazine release has a classic tight waffle pattern.
In back you have medium beavertail, and the hammer is a small extended thumb that’s exactly where you’d expect it. At the bottom is a grip safety, curved palmswell, solid trigger in a racetrack oval trigger guard and a lanyard loop. The magazines slide flat into the non-flared magwell.
Auto Ordnance makes its guns in Worcester, Massachusetts and is part of Kahr Firearms Group.
