Nighthawk Custom GRP .45 ACP Government Model 5″
The GRP may be our entry level pistol, but just like every Nighthawk Custom pistol, each part is hand fit by a single gunsmith. The GRP utilizes coarse cocking serrations on the front and rear of the slide. It includes Heinie Ledge Straight Eight tritium rear sight paired with a tritium front sight. The GRP uses all the fully machined parts and craftsmanship that go into our entire Nighthawk Custom lineup. This model, along with all others, follows the “One Gun, One Gunsmith” philosophy which means the gun is built by a single gunsmith. We have no assembly line. We have a group of master gunsmiths that start with a box of intentionally oversized parts and build them into the world’s finest 1911.
