Colt Mfg O9842CCU 1911 4.25" 10-Round Stainless 1911 Pistol

The Colt Mfg O9842CCU 1911 4.25" 10-Round Stainless 1911 Pistol is a purpose-built defensive and duty-grade handgun engineered for law enforcement, military personnel, and serious civilian shooters who demand proven reliability in critical situations. This compact 1911 variant bridges the gap between full-size and subcompact platforms, offering the ergonomic mastery and combat-proven mechanics of the M1911 design in a configuration optimized for duty carry, tactical deployment, and personal protection.

Built from 416 stainless steel, the O9842CCU delivers superior corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments—critical for operators working in wet, coastal, or chemically demanding conditions where carbon steel frames corrode rapidly. The 4.25-inch barrel length reduces overall profile and weight to 4 lbs while maintaining full-power cartridge velocity and sight radius essential for accurate shot placement beyond 25 yards; this compact length also facilitates faster target acquisition and reduces snag potential during tactical movement or vehicle operations.

The 10-round magazine capacity reflects the single-stack 1911 geometry, making it suitable for various jurisdictions, although users should verify local regulations. The traditional single-action trigger provides a consistent and reliable shooting experience, making it an excellent choice for those who prioritize performance and accuracy in their firearms.
