Colt
The Colt Night Commander 45 ACP is a compact, carry-ready 1911 built on proven platform engineering for hunters, sport shooters, and defensive-minded folks who want reliability and confidence in a gun they can actually live with day-to-day. At 29.4 ounces with a 4.25-inch barrel, this aluminum-framed .45 splits the difference between a full-size 1911 and a pocket gun—snappy enough to carry, substantial enough to shoot straight. The blued finish pairs with a protective CERAKOTE treatment on the frame for corrosion resistance in field and urban conditions alike.
This is a proper single-action-only 1911 design, meaning the hammer is cocked and ready; the trigger breaks clean at 4.5 to 6 pounds with that signature 1911 feel. Three-hole aluminum skeletonized trigger, undercut triggerguard, and checkered G10 grips with an upswept beavertail give you positive control whether you're working the trigger at the bench or in a defensive scenario. Triple safety system—extended thumb safety, grip safety, and Series 80 firing pin safety—keeps the gun secure until you decide otherwise. The dual recoil spring system is a nice touch: it soaks up more of the .45's snap and stretches the life of your springs.
What really sets this carry piece apart is the Novak tritium night sight setup front and rear. Low-mount carry sights mean you get a fast sight picture without the bulk, and tritium dots work when ambient light doesn't—dawn hunts, indoor ranges, or any low-light defensive situation. Eight rounds in the magazine plus one in the chamber gives you nine .45 ACP shots before a reload. Measuring 7.75 inches overall length and just 1.25 inches wide, it fits a solid carrying solution without printing.
Note: these are Shooter's Model pistols—100% new and factory-boxed, but they may carry minor finish imperfections from manufacturing that don't affect function and won't be covered under Colt's standard one-year warranty. If your eye isn't trained to spot manufacturing marks without magnification, you likely won't see them.

Yes. The 4.25-inch barrel and 29.4-ounce weight make it a capable mid-sized carry option. The upswept beavertail, undercut triggerguard, and checkered G10 grips are all designed around everyday carry ergonomics. The tritium night sights are a major advantage for low-light situations, and the Series 80 safety system is reliable. This is a purpose-built carry 1911.
The single-action trigger breaks between 4.5 and 6 pounds. This is typical for a 1911 and yields a crisp, predictable break suitable for both range and defensive work.
Shooter's Model pistols are brand new and factory-boxed but may have minor finish imperfections from the manufacturing process—marks that are often invisible unless you're looking closely or using magnification. These cosmetic flaws are not covered under Colt's one-year warranty. If you're sensitive to minor marks, ask us about condition before you buy.
