Armscor Rock Rocki 51868 *Ca Stst 1911 Cs 45 3.6 7R Ss
The Rock Island Armory Rock Standard is a compact 1911-style pistol in .45 ACP, purpose-built for shooters who want classic Series 70 design without the premium price tag. This is a serious carry gun and range workhorse for hunters, sport shooters, and defensive-minded folks who appreciate the proven 1911 platform. The stainless steel frame and slide are matte-finished for a clean, durable look, while all exposed parts are parkerized or chrome-plated high-grade steel to handle hard use and the elements.
At 3.6 inches, the barrel is right-sized for concealed carry while maintaining the inherent accuracy the 1911 is famous for. The seven-round .45 ACP capacity gives you serious stopping power in a slim, manageable package. The fixed sights are dovetail-mounted and snag-free—the low-profile rear sight is angled for fast target acquisition in defensive situations. The action is crisp straight out of the box, with a factory trigger pull between 4 and 6 pounds, and the gun comes with a skeletonized hammer and beavertail grip safety for reliable operation and comfort. Double diamond checkered wood grips add traditional appeal and positive control.
This is a no-nonsense 1911 compact: honest engineering, time-tested design, and the kind of quality control Rock Island Armory has earned in the market. Whether you're after a truck gun, a backup, a dedicated .45 ACP platform, or just a handy defensive pistol that doesn't compromise on heritage or shootability, the Rock Standard delivers.
