Description

This Rock Island Armory Tac Ultra FS is a semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP, built on the classic M1911-A1 pattern with enhanced tactical features. The firearm is equipped with a 5-inch barrel featuring a polished stainless steel exterior visible at the ejection port, and the underside of the frame incorporates an integral Picatinny accessory rail for lights or lasers. The metal surfaces display a matte black Parkerized-style finish, complemented by grey and black G10-style laminate grips textured in a sunburst pattern. Technical specifications include a skeletonized trigger and hammer, an ambidextrous thumb safety, and an extended beavertail grip safety. The sighting system consists of a fiber optic front sight paired with an adjustable two-dot rear sight. Key markings include the manufacturer logo on the left side of the slide and the frame markings “APINTL-PAHRUMP NV” and “ACP PHILIPPINES.” The right side of the frame is stamped with the model designation “M1911 A1 FS – TACT.” and the serial number “RIA2706343.” The lot is accompanied by one 8-round magazine, the original black plastic hard case, a user’s manual, and a green Armscor inspection certificate. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.


Condition report:

The pistol is in good used condition, showing minor finish wear and light scratches on the slide and frame consistent with light handling. The matte black finish remains largely intact with some thinning on high edges and near the accessory rail. The grey G10 textured grips are excellent with no significant dings or wear to the pattern. The bore is bright with strong, crisp rifling. The action appears to function correctly, and the slide cycles smoothly, though the firearm has not been test-fired. The included magazine shows light finish wear from insertion and removal. The original plastic case and manual are in good condition.
