Colt Defender Capacity
The Colt Defender is chambered in .45ACP and accepts a 7-round single-stack detachable magazine.
Colt Defender Feature
The Colt Defender is a steel-framed, semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45ACP and is a scaled-down version of the world-famous Colt 1911. Its slide is shortened to match its 3 inch barrel and its frame is approximately one half of an inch shorter. Its sights are windage-adjustable.
Colt Defender Ergonomics
The Colt Defender copies all of the controls of its full-size inspiration and has a very similar feel in the hand. Its shorter frame still often allows for a full-handed grip. Its recoil spring is a bit heavier than the full-size 1911’s to make up for the reduction in slide mass.
Colt Defender Concealability
The Colt Defender measures 6.75 inches long and 5 inches tall allowing it to easily be concealed with the right holster and attire. Though it’s smaller, the exposed hammer and the grip safety’s beavertail can cause some discomfort in certain positions.
Colt Defender Fit-N-Finish
The Colt Defender is available in a handful of color schemes and can have wood or synthetic grips. Its action is smooth with a tight lockup, and its trigger is just as crisp as every other Colt 1911.
