I know what you’re thinking…I wish there were more 1911 options to choose from (right?). Well lucky for you, Palmetto State Armory has just added a couple more. With the announcement of their new Admiral line you can pick from a couple of different models in 10mm or John Browning’s favorite, the .45 ACP. PSA has partnered with Rock Island Armory for the Admiral line and those folks have been making 1911’s for quite some time.
The 10mm Ultra FS and .45 ACP Tactical FS have all of the features you’d expect from a tricked out carry or IDPA-style pistol. The .45 ACP Standard FS is a G.I. style gun for folks who want a traditional 1911.
They’re showing an MSRP of $649.99 with a current Labor Day sale going on of $549.99 for the 10mm Ultra FS, $599.99 with a sale for $499.99 for the .45 ACP Tactical FS, and $499.99 with a sale for $399.99 on the .45 ACP Standard FS model. Although I joke around about there being yet more 1911’s out there, the guns look pretty solid and pack some great features at competitive prices.
Check out the details on the Ultra FS, it and the tactical FS share most of the same details, and then I’ll drop the basic info on the other two models below it.
