Two flavors of our Single Stack Sand Hawk // Available in 9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm - this is the flattest, softest shooting 1911 we’ve ever made

@TGDDOT It’s the line on the side of the slide where the flats meet the curved portion of the top of the slide.

@NighthawkCustom Beatiful, these pistols are in my upcoming WWII alt-history novel. What are "cut in French borders"?

The Nighthawk Custom Shop is where we work on non-Nighthawk 1911s like this 1946 Argentine Modelo 1927 (sometimes called the “Sistema Colt”). It’s a licensed copy of the Colt 1911A1, produced for the Argentine Army using original Colt machinery and blueprints. Marked “Ejército Argentino” and chambered in 11.25mm (.45 ACP), these pistols earned a reputation for quality that closely mirrored their American-made counterparts. Our custom shop did a full reliability tune and polish on all the internals, tightened slide to frame fit, fit a match-grade barrel bushing and plug and flush cut a reverse crown on the barrel, we did a match trigger job, fit a retro-style spur hammer to pair with a new higher-cut beaver tail for improved ergonomics, added serrations on the front strap and rear mainspring housing, cut in French borders, and refinished the pistol in Smoked Nitride…among other things.

@D25610 @SteelLuxuries Half of our business is still single stacks. We will never EVER stop pushing the single stack 1911. It’s like driving a manual transmission - it’ll always have an appeal

@SteelLuxuries I think @NighthawkCustom is a premier 1911 maker. The trend, probably because of Staccato, is double stacks. Every manufacturer is making them. I’m a little more traditional and love a well executed 1911. But double stacks are the current trend. They will be great from Berryville

@savagebeast221 It’s a GRP with custom options. Every Nighthawk can be customized about 100 different ways

@NighthawkCustom This is not the same GRP pistol that is on their site. I do prefer this one. Wish I knew what it was called

Anything but entry-level. The Nighthawk Global Response Pistol is built to the same exacting standards as every Nighthawk. The GRP uses fully machined components hand-fit by a single gunsmith for heirloom-quality looks, precision, and performance. Purposeful front-and-rear cocking serrations, a recessed, beveled slide stop, and a durable black-nitride finish come standard. Available in single- or double-stack configurations with nearly limitless customization options, the GRP stands tall in stock form as a no-frills 1911 built by the very best, or as the perfect blank canvas for your next custom build.

@ltdmstr It looks cool. 😎 And adds weight to the muzzle. You can get it as a full length rail as well.

There's one revolver I lust after. Just one. The @NighthawkCustom Korth. It's made in Germany and the quality and precision is simply unreal. It's way out of my price range... but if I could have just one revolver, this would be it.

@RumiMoore26 @MAC_Arms There was a slight price increase because of tariffs but otherwise we haven’t changed the price on these in years 🤔

@MAC_Arms @NighthawkCustom Same - it pains me to see the prices jump up on them so much in the last year too. They went from out of my grasp, but maybe if I don’t eat for a month I could have one to Atlas money. I’d absolutely love to have access to one at the very least!

@MAC_Arms @NighthawkCustom They are probably super awesome but one revolver? My concern for such a hypothetical is what if it needed repair…pretty easy to take care of most issues for a nice Smith, but with Korth, I’m guessing it would be much more of a pain to upkeep.
