The Remington-branded 1911 R1 is an A1 variant of the 1911 with modern upgrades. Like the original 1911, the 1911 R1 has a flat mainspring housing, short trigger and double diamond grips. 1911 devotees will appreciate the modern enhancements, such as a flared and lowered ejection port; beveled magazine well; loaded chamber indicator; high-profile, dovetailed single-dot front and two-dot rear sights; a crisp 3.5- to 5-pound trigger pull; and a match-grade stainless-steel barrel and barrel bushing. It also has the Series 80-style firing-pin block safety.
