Aero Ordnance 1911 Black Sheep 45Acp 5 7Rd

The Auto Ordnance 1911 Black Sheep is a limited-edition .45 ACP pistol built on the timeless 1911 platform and decorated with custom artwork honoring WWII Pacific theater fighter pilots. This is a collaboration piece that blends historical tribute with shootable steel—a 1911 that works as hard as it looks. Whether you're a serious collector, a 1911 enthusiast, or a shooter who appreciates American military heritage, the Black Sheep delivers both aesthetic presence and proven .45 ACP performance.

The standout feature is the custom Cerakote finish: a rich blue paired with Stormtrooper White and USMC Red, with Vought F4U Corsair artwork and rivet-pattern engraving that runs across the frame. The polished belly is sealed under a matte Cerakote clear coat. Custom aluminum grips are engraved in-house with airplane roundels and red kill badges. Every detail reflects the skill and bravery of the aces who flew these legendary fighters into harm's way.

At 8.6 inches overall and 2.3 pounds, the Black Sheep carries like a standard 1911 and feeds from a 7-round magazine. The sights are straightforward—a blade front and rear drift-adjustable for windage—keeping the gun practical for range work or duty use. The .45 ACP chambering means proven, reliable ballistics and a proven platform that's been trusted for over a century.

This is a limited run, so availability is finite. If you're drawn to military history, aviation heritage, or simply want a 1911 that tells a story, the Black Sheep is worth serious consideration.
