STI International has released its new series of HEX Tactical 1911-pattern pistols. Choose from single-stack or double-stack models chambered in 9 mm or .45 ACP with 4" or 5" barrels. The tri-topped slide reduces weight and allows for quick target acquisition. The hex pattern slide serrations provide an improved gripping surface. The single-stack 9 mm version handled nicely during the SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range, exhibiting a clean, light trigger pull. Other features include an ambidextrous safety, fiber-optic front sight, ledge rear sight, a CeraKote finish and slim profile VZ Grips G10 Alien grip panels. MSRP: Starting at $2,199
