Turnbull Model 1911 WWI with A Coverage Engraving – PAST PRODUCT – No Longer for Sale

These WWI-style Turnbull Model 1911s feature a touch of classic American scroll hand engraving with our “A” (25%) coverage, derived from the early 20th century Colt 1911s engraved by Rudolph Kornbrath. The splashes of elegant scroll work adorn the top and sides of the slide, as well as select areas on the frame, enhancing rather than overwhelming the clean lines of our 1911 pistol. This style of hand engraving is cleanly cut with fine line shading, providing a subtle decorative touch under our classic charcoal blue finish.

With all Model 1911s built by Turnbull Restoration, customers have been drawn to the marriage of restoration-grade artisanship with new gun production. Such is the case here – it’s a no-nonsense, WWI-style 1911 that demonstrates what can be accomplished when the restoration mindset is applied to the production of a new firearm. This is a great opportunity to add to your collection a period-faithful piece with all the benefits of new production.
