Wilson Combat WPSASSCA Protector *CA .45 ACP 5" 9-Round Stainless Pistol

The Wilson Combat WPSASSCA Protector in .45 ACP is a California-compliant 1911-platform pistol engineered for shooters who refuse compromise on duty performance within restricted regulatory environments. Designed for law enforcement, armed security professionals, and civilian concealed carry in CA jurisdictions, this 5-inch stainless steel platform delivers the proven ergonomics and reliability of the 1911 while meeting state-mandated magazine capacity restrictions and safety requirements. The Protector series represents Wilson Combat's commitment to providing service-grade firearms that function flawlessly regardless of legal constraints.

Built on a full-size 1911 frame with a 5-inch barrel, the WPSASSCA features a stainless steel construction that resists corrosion during extended carry and training cycles. The 9-round magazine capacity complies with California's legal limits while providing adequate defensive capacity for duty or self-defense use. The compensator design reduces muzzle rise and felt recoil, allowing faster follow-up shots and improving accuracy in dynamic shooting scenarios—critical advantages that translate directly to operational effectiveness. Wilson Combat's hand-fit tolerances and quality control ensure sub-2-inch groupings at 25 yards, delivering the match-grade precision expected from a purpose-built duty pistol.

This platform is ideal for California-based law enforcement agencies, armed professionals operating under state firearms regulations, and serious civilian shooters who prioritize reliability and accuracy in a regulated market. The 5-inch slide profile balances shootability with holster compatibility for duty rigs and tactical carriers designed for full-size 1911 platforms. At 5.59 lbs unloaded, the Protector maintains the natural pointability and recoil management of the 1911 family while delivering stainless durability in high-round-count training and operational environments. Compatible with standard 1911 holsters, accessories, and magazines rated for California-legal capacities.
