Reno, NV – -(Ammoland.com)- Legacy Sports International announces a new, rimfire replica of the Model of 1911 semi-auto pistol designed by John Browning and carried by U.S. troops for most of the 20th Century.
The CITADEL M-1911.22 G.I. model is similar in weight and balance, as well as handling characteristics as “Old Slab Sides”.
However, unlike the military model, the CITADEL M-1911-22 G.I. has been redesigned with a fixed barrel and blowback action that provides for high accuracy without a high price. The CITADEL M-1911-22 G.I. also comes with two (2), 10 round magazines!
The CITADEL M-1911-22 G.I. is constructed of alloy and steel parts, and features two-piece, wooden grip panels that are interchangeable with standard 1911 grips.
Sights are standard G.I. and are also interchangeable with centerfire 1911 sights. In fact, the entire pistol is configured to standard G.I. specifications, right down to the lanyard loop! The CITADEL M-1911-22 G.I. model, therefore, is an ideal choice for target shooting practice in place of the .45 ACP, as well as for general plinking. It also makes a GREAT companion gun to our new, M-1.22 carbine! The CITADEL M-1911-22 G.I. has a 4.75 inch barrel with six grooves, and a rate-of-twist of 1:16 inches. It weighs 2.1 lbs. and is designed to fire .22 LR ammunition.
The CITADEL M-1911-22 G.I. is sold with two, 10 round magazines. Each pistol is factory tested for reliability and accuracy and have been found to shoot groups of .75 to 1.5 inches at 25 yards.
