The Springfield Armory Garrison Target 1911 delivers timeless 1911 styling combined with modern enhancements designed for precision shooting and long-term durability. Chambered in .45 ACP, this full-size handgun blends heirloom-quality craftsmanship with upgraded features that make it equally suited for range use, competition shooting, and defensive applications.
Built with a forged carbon steel slide and frame finished in a rich hot salt blued coating, the Garrison Target preserves the classic appearance enthusiasts expect from a traditional Government-style 1911 while incorporating refined modern touches. The forged stainless steel match-grade barrel and fully supported ramp help provide excellent reliability and consistent accuracy shot after shot, while the hard-hitting .45 ACP chambering delivers the legendary stopping power that made the 1911 platform famous.
One of the standout features of this model is its low-profile adjustable rear sight, allowing shooters to fine-tune both windage and elevation for a clean sight picture and repeatable zero. Paired with a bright white dot front sight, the adjustable setup makes this pistol especially appealing for target shooting and competition-minded users seeking greater precision.
The pistol also features elegant thinline wood grips with a checkered double-diamond pattern and Springfield’s Crossed Cannon logo. These slim-profile grips provide a classic appearance while enhancing ergonomics and control during extended shooting sessions. Combined with the traditional 1911 frame geometry, the thinline grips help deliver a comfortable and natural feel in the hand.
A rugged blued steel 7-round magazine ensures dependable feeding performance, while the GI-style recoil system maintains the familiar shooting characteristics 1911 enthusiasts appreciate. Springfield also includes a premium soft-sided handgun case for convenient transport and storage.
