The Iver Johnson Arms Hawk Commander is a rugged, mid-size Series 70 1911 pistol that expertly balances traditional heavy-caliber performance with a more compact, carry-friendly profile. Chambered in the authoritative .45 ACP cartridge, this single-action semi-automatic handgun features a 4.25-inch black finished steel barrel paired with a precision CNC-machined forged steel slide and cast steel frame. To guarantee exceptional out-of-the-box reliability and an incredibly tight, wiggle-free fit, each slide is individually hand-fitted to its companion frame by skilled builders. Meticulously finished in a non-glare matte bluing, the Hawk Commander comes fully optimized for personal defense and target shooting alike, featuring premium double-diamond fine-line checkered walnut grips, aggressive angled front and rear slide cocking serrations, and genuine Novak LoMount rear sights paired with a dovetailed front sight.
