Nighthawk Firehawk 1911 9mm Double Stack Compensated Barrel Smoke Grey
Description
This cutting edge offering from Nighthawk Custom is the next advance in our long line of purpose-built innovation. By utilizing a recoil-taming, single-port compensator, a bull barrel and full-length guide rod that adds weight to the front of the pistol to reduce muzzle rise, a commander length spring and reverse plug, Nighthawk Custom has maintained the standard stroke of a 5 inch 1911 for reliability. The lightened slide reduces reciprocating mass and delivers a flat shooting performance without increasing the size of the pistol. A French border ties together both the slide and the compensator for a seamless look, and the one-piece magwell allows for smoother reloads. The compensator is bull nosed to allow for a cleaner draw and reholster while still maintaining an edgy aggressive look that completes this package. The traditionally styled Fire Hawk boasts an upper hand in performance, all while delivering the classic look that you have come to know and expect from Nighthawk Custom.

Double Stack Upgrade
Nighthawk Custom also offers a high-capacity double stack frame as an option. All Double Stack pistols are chambered exclusively in 9mm. We currently have three Nighthawk Custom models that come standard as a double stack, or you can upgrade a standard single stack framed model to a double stack frame. This option is available on a 6” Chairman model, as well as every other 5” or 4.25” length barrel model, besides the Agent 2 and Thunder Ranch model. If you love the 1911 platform but want high capacity- this is the way to go. Whether it’s a GRP, Trooper, Vice President, or Fire Hawk- it can be upgraded to a double stack frame. We are excited to offer a double stack 1911 worthy of putting the Nighthawk Custom name on.

This is one amazing gun. Buttery smooth action, excellent balance and precision build quality, accurate in my hand from very first shot. The compensator allows you to rip off 4 or 5 rounds in a row without losing sight objective. Yes, relatively expensive. But if I were asked to recommend a single gun to a serious shooter, it would be this one. And, like a Rolex watch, it has strong market presence and appeal. Hopefully never necessary but it Will always have great value in a financial emergency. Not just a name, a truly masterfully built pistol. PS- I’m older, just recovering from illness and my strength is not what it once was. And this is the perfect gun for me.
