The Taurus 1911 Full-Size .45 ACP pistol in blue finish is a classic single-action handgun built on a time-proven platform. This Model 1-191101DT combines traditional 1911 design with modern manufacturing and quality control—hammer-forged ordnance-grade steel frames, slides, and barrels are machined to tight tolerances and hand-fitted by Taurus pistolsmiths. The result is a full-size .45 ACP that's accurate, reliable, and ready to shoot right out of the box.

Built for shooters who value proven 1911 ergonomics and stopping power, this gun delivers the ballistics and handling characteristics that have made the .45 ACP a favorite among defensive shooters and handgun enthusiasts for over a century. At 38 ounces, the full-size frame provides a solid platform for accurate shooting, while the 5-inch barrel and 8+1 capacity strike a balance between firepower and carry weight. The checkered black grips offer secure purchase, and the Heinie front sight provides a quality aiming reference.

Taurus machines every component to specification and hand-tunes each pistol before it ships, with matching serial numbers marked on the slide, barrel, and frame. The ventilated trigger is crisp and controllable. Whether you're headed to the range for practice, setting up a home-defense gun, or simply exploring classic pistol shooting, the Taurus 1911 offers genuine 1911 handling without the premium price tag of other builders.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a Taurus 1911 and other full-size .45 ACP pistols?

This Taurus uses hammer-forged (not cast) ordnance-grade steel for the frame, slide, and barrel, with each gun hand-fitted and tuned by a pistolsmith before shipment. The tight machining tolerances and hand-tuning process are intended to deliver accuracy and reliability comparable to much more expensive 1911 builds.

Is the Taurus 1911 suitable for carry or home defense?

Yes. The full-size frame, 5-inch barrel, and .45 ACP caliber make this a capable defensive pistol. At 38 ounces and 8.5 inches long, it's practical for home defense or belt carry for shooters comfortable with full-size pistol dimensions and recoil.

What's included when I purchase this pistol?

The product facts provided do not specify what accessories, magazines, or cases are included with purchase. Contact Bosque Outdoors directly for details on what comes in the box.

Can I use standard 1911 parts and magazines with this pistol?

The Taurus 1911 is built on the standard 1911 platform and uses a large frame, so it should accept most full-size 1911 magazines and parts. However, for compatibility with specific accessories or modifications, consult the manual or speak with a gunsmith familiar with Taurus 1911 fitment.
