SIG SAUER 1911-X .45 ACP 5-Inch Coyote Pistol

SIG SAUER 1911-X .45 ACP 5-Inch Coyote Pistol

The SIG SAUER 1911-X combines the familiar handling and single-action operation of a full-size 1911 with modern controls, an optic-ready slide, and durable contemporary finishes. This exact configuration, manufacturer part number 1911XR-45-CXR3, is chambered in .45 ACP and pairs a 5-inch barrel with a full-size stainless-steel frame. Its coyote PVD-finished frame and slide contrast with a black DLC-finished barrel and black G10 grip panels for a distinctive two-tone appearance.

Classic 1911 Operation with Modern Refinements

At its core, the 1911-X retains the straight-pull, single-action trigger system and manual controls associated with the 1911 platform. SIG equips this model with an adjustable XSeries flat-blade trigger intended to provide a consistent trigger-finger position. An extended ambidextrous manual safety supports right- or left-handed manipulation, while the beavertail grip-safety design helps establish a high, controlled grip.

The stainless-steel frame incorporates an undercut trigger guard and a serrated, checkered front strap to improve contact with the pistol during presentation and recoil management. Custom black G10 grip panels from LOK Grips add durable texture, and a removable metal magazine well helps guide reloads. A railed dust cover provides an attachment point for a compatible light or other pistol accessory.

Optic-Ready XSeries Slide

The stainless-steel slide is finished in coyote PVD and features XSeries serrations at the front and rear for multiple manipulation points. Its ultra-low-profile optic cut uses the compact Shield RMSc footprint, allowing a compatible micro reflex sight to mount directly without unnecessarily increasing sight height. Buyers should still verify the footprint, screw length, and installation specifications for the selected optic before mounting.

XRAY3 day/night sights provide a usable iron-sight system in varied lighting conditions and remain available when the pistol is used without an optic. The combination of an optic-ready slide and factory night sights lets the owner configure the pistol for traditional iron-sight use or add a compatible red dot according to training needs and preference.

Full-Size .45 ACP Configuration

A 5-inch carbon-steel barrel with a black DLC finish gives this model the traditional full-size 1911 barrel length. Overall length is approximately 8.7 inches, with the steel construction providing the substantial feel many shooters expect from a full-size .45 ACP pistol. The pistol ships with two eight-round steel magazines for an 8+1 capacity when carried with a loaded chamber, where lawful and appropriate.

Ownership and Safety Notes

Confirm the exact model, optic footprint, and magazine capacity before ordering. Any optic, weapon light, or holster should be checked for proper fit with this specific railed, optic-ready 1911 configuration. Follow the owner’s manual for field stripping, lubrication, optic installation, and safe operation. Keep the pistol unloaded while inspecting, cleaning, or installing accessories, and store firearms securely away from unauthorized users. Firearm and magazine laws vary by jurisdiction; the purchaser is responsible for confirming transfer and possession requirements.
