Nighthawk Custom is renowned for their high-quality 1911s. For SHOT 2024, they’re launching yet another well-made pistol with the Nighthawk Custom VIP Silver. This custom-quality 1911 provides stellar performance right out of the box. It’s a fantastic example why there are no safe queens. The VIP Silver might be aesthetically stunning, but it also promises to be a reliable, precise gun for various uses.
For this year’s SHOT Show, Nighthawk introduces the latest member to their firearms family with the VIP (Very Impressive Pistols) Silver. This Government-sized 1911 is chambered in .45ACP with 8 +1 capacity. The VIP Silver has a 5-inch barrel with an overall length of 8.66 inches and a height of 5.6 inches. A single gunsmith crafts each pistol for superior quality and incredible attention to detail. The frame, slide, and barrel are all carefully hand fit.
Features of the Nighthawk VIP Silver include a one-piece mainspring housing, hand blended magwell, and custom vertical front strap and mainspring serrations. In addition, this gun has a stainless finish and hand engravings. Grips are giraffe bone. The pistol’s dehorned and hand beveled contours also reduce snags and improve concealed carry. It comes standard with a Heinie Black Slant Pro rear sight and a gold bead front sight to draw the eye. The barrel is throated with a polished feed ramp. To top it all off, the VIP Silver ships in a custom walnut hardwood display box with two jeweled magazines.
